It’s hard to imagine a time when the brilliant guitar playing and Appalachian roots of Doc Watson weren’t a part of the American musical fabric. A famed artist in his day and a continuing influence on American music, Watson happened into the music industry much by accident, “discovered” by noted folklorist Ralph Rinzler in the early 1960s when he was mainly playing rockabilly tunes on the electric guitar near his home in tiny Deep Gap, North Carolina.

“If you ask ol’ Will, he’ll say, ‘Here’s the deal friends, it’s all going to…’” Luck Productions presents “Come And Toke It”—a new variety show and fourth installment of Luck’s ongoing live programming (following Til’ Further Notice, Hello Walls, and Prime Cuts).

"Part Problem" comes from Nahko And Medicine for the People's new album ‘Take Your Power Back,’ out 5/15 on Medicine Tribe/SideOneDummy records.

Andy Frasco is a live wire with so much love and attention coming at his fans, it’s an unstoppable force.  Hit with an unmoveable virus, he has taken to the internet like a duck on a pond.  Check out his quarantine sing-along videos.  He’s got hits such as Whitney Houston’s “I Wanna Dance With Somebody” and most recently he has done an outstanding job with all his friends on his zoom rendition of Shania Twain’s “Man I Feel Like a Woman.” His heartwarming antics bring a smile to a cold time known forevermore as COVID-19.

Spafford has announced that they will release the entire second set of their Frisco. Colorado show at 10 Mile Music Hall from earlier this year with exclusive never before seen video footage. Spafford will premiere the video footage on Wednesday, April 15 at 8 PM eastern. Tune in here to watch it live.

John Hartford’s nimble, whit-fueled songs have long been a focal point of the bluegrass and newgrass canon and Hartford’s musicianship, on both the banjo and fiddle, has now been doted over for generations, but until recently, little has been known about his late-in-life, academic approach to fiddle music. After Hartford passed in 2001, his family discovered over two-thousand original, hand-written fiddle tune charts in file cabinets under his desk, and in time, the idea for a way to honor Hartford’s passion has grown legs.

California singer-songwriter Joss Jaffe is excited to announce his latest single, “Traveller.” "Traveller” is slated for release on Friday, April 17 with a music video. Two more singles, “Play It Again (feat. Kiyoshi)" and "Natural Rhythms (feat. Adam Knight)," will be released on April 20 and 22, respectively.

The Get Right Band out of Asheville, NC, will be releasing their 5th studio album on 5/23/2020.  My only complaint is that it can’t come out sooner.  With 14 tracks and an edgy vibe, these songs are keeping me dancing while the #shelterinplace order continues.

The future changed in a blink of an eye, especially around dating. Instead of sunset rides on BIRDs, we will roll the walkways in our human, hamster bubbles, safely keeping our distance. There will be absolutely no kissing, touching or holding until we have established a true and sustained liking for one another. For many, the now required face mask will hide best features like a smile, white teeth or high cheek bones, diminishing our chances further.
