- On Open Mic, we highlight some of the best bluegrass performances from Mountain Stage for the year 2011 including sets from Hot Rize, SteelDrivers, Charlie Sizemore, and The Grascals.
- On Bluegrass Breakdown, The Hillbenders will be bending notes, genres and maybe a few hills to boot when they join us live!
- On Bluegrass Signal, we feature the second of a two-part special with Kathy Kallick. Most of the musical selections are from Kathy’s “Between the Hollow & the High-Rise” and “Count Your Blessings: A Bluegrass Gospel Collection,” as well as a preview of the next Kathy Kallick Band album. Topics covered include Kathy’s band mates, songwriting, singing with Laurie Lewis, and other aspects of her music.
- On The Dick Spottswood Show, Dick features an informal session with his neighbor Bill Metts, a fine singer who adroitly adapts Mississippi John Hurt guitar licks to other music he likes.
- Also, be sure to check out videos of recent live performances from our Washington, DC studios.
Read about all this and more in the January 21-27 Highlights.
