This week we'll be featuring:
Simple Gifts of the Blue Ridge - Traditional Appalachian
Bob Browder and Russ Boyd - Old Time Fiddle and banjo
Jim Kern and Friends - Eclectic Acoustic Folk
Due South - Honky Tonky Bluegrass (!)
Be there, peeps!
A blog for bluegrass fans to talk about bluegrass or whatever and to check up on the Java Brothers Bluegrass Band from Radford, Virginia. We are progressive, but pretty much only to the extent that we'll play new songs as hard driving bluegrass. We love Bill Monroe, the Stanley Brothers, The Seldom Scene, JD Crowe, Tony Rice, Sam Bush, the Country Gentlemen, the Beatles, the Stones, and all the greats.

How'd it go? Need a full report!
Good time. The Simple Gifts were definitely a change of style for the SD. They're a little less improvisational than most of our bands, but the SD crowd gave them their attention. The hammer dulcimers were pretty cool, and the flute really carried. They had a bodhran on some of the tunes and got some toes tappin'.
I think Bob and Mary went over pretty large. Kern and Ko did ok, and Due South is always fun. Sound was pretty good (I thought, anyway).
