The Spiral Discussion. STATUS: What are you listening to?

I’m glad Grasstowne is still going to be a thing. Apparently they were starting to play fewer tour dates anyway due to the other members’ schedules? Anyway, I think it’s so cool that they’ve got another veteran coming aboard. They’ve got one of the best stepping in who screams supergroup. Plus I can bet Alan’s vocal skills will be used well…

I’m sure it will be great! Just surprised me.

Come down to Withlacoochee tomorrow! I couldn’t live less than 2 hours away from this festival and not go! We’re having so much fun!

I have Bible school in the evening (and it’s also my mom’s birthday) but I’m sure I’ll get over there one of these years.

Sounds like the best birthday gift to me! :banjo:

I’ve listened to Young Original’s “Doubt Your Love” live take several times now:

They normally also have Carver Bowers on vocals as well as Lily Morren (Ben the pianist’s wife).
For those of you who haven’t seen them, they are well worth a follow on Instagram! I believe they are aiming to release an album and hopefully will be on more platforms soon.

Others from last month or so include “Part of the Plan” by Dan Fogelberg and “The Riddle” by Five for Fighting.

Sorry, none of those were bluegrass. :joy:

I’ve heard most of those musicians but not together. We jammed with Joe Xiques for a while a couple years ago. Wish my piano playing skills were half that good!

I did a string stock up from the general store so I could get a free Blue Chip… I bought a TP 60 for a friend’s birthday a few months ago and I kinda really like it so I got one for myself and then got the free thumbpick :sunglasses:

New album from Travis Alltop and the gang. Streamlined, tasteful bluegrass gospel as you can always expect from these guys. Y’all would dig it!
