Die Leadsingle des Albums, "On the Road Again", gibt die Stimmung des Albums vor und zeigt die warmen, unmittelbaren Harmonien der Brüder. Ironischerweise schrieben die Moss-Brüder ON THE ROAD AGAIN - eine Quintessenz, die das Leben des tourenden Musikers erforscht und von der Sehnsucht nach der Straße spricht.

(on vinyl) - their second album, 2016's Rattle & Roar, but they have managed to use some subtle studio technique to give this session a more distinct personality than was displayed on the debut. As anyone would expect, the performances on Rattle & Roar are splendid, and the musicians -- Douglas, Johnny Warren on fiddle, Charlie Cushman on banjo, Shawn Camp on guitar and lead vocals, Jeff White on mandolin (replacing Tim O'Brien from the first album), and Barry Bales on upright bass -- sound even tighter and more joyously emphatic than they did before. (The harmonies are every bit as good, too.) 17 Songs wie STEEL GUITAR BLUES oder FLINT HILL SPECIAL

2014 - (on vinyl)  The new group is the product of Douglas's lifelong passion for the music of bluegrass pioneers Lester Flatt and Earl Scruggs and their band the Foggy Mountain Boys, whose seminal work in the '50s and '60s created the template for what we know as contemporary bluegrass, and transcended traditional genre barriers to popularize the music with an unprecedented mass audience.
"This record is something I've been waiting my whole life to do," veteran Dobro master Jerry Douglas says of the self-titled debut by the new all-star dream team combo that he has assembled, organized and produced....

2022 - (2-LP: Smoke Coloured Vinyl) - die Entstehung von "Stress Dreams“ geht auf den Beginn der Pandemie zurück, als die Mitglieder von Greensky Bluegrass die Zeit außerhalb der Tournee nutzten, um Demos vorzubereiten, bevor sie E-Mails und Sprachnotizen austauschten. Im Juli 2020 kamen GSBG schließlich zum ersten Mal seit vier Monaten wieder zusammen und widmeten sich bei den Proben der Arbeit an neuem Material. Das Album wurde im Laufe einer Session in Guilford, Vermont, und zwei weiterer in Asheville aufgenommen.

1989 - “And The Hartford String Band” - John Hartford's Down on the River is an old-timey tribute to the Mississippi River and its steamboats, casinos and saloons, filled with campy salutes to a forgotten lifestyles, as well as surprisingly affectionate paens to a lost era. Hartford's approach may be too kitschy for some -- after all, there are several songs driven by calliope -- yet its a thoroughly entertaining album for listeners that share his obsessions, or at least his fondness for fine, old-timey banjo....very rare on vinyl !!!

2021 - (vinyl) - Singer/songwriter and upright bassist Melissa Carper is the genuine article. Her style evokes greats like Kitty Wells, Billie Holiday and Loretta Lynn, as heard in the dozen tunes on "Daddy's Country Gold." This shimmering 12-song collection of original gems about love and a desire for the simple life mixes melancholy and humor and creates an irresistible pull between laughter and heartache. Incl. Dennis Crouch (bass), Chris Scruggs- (rhythm guitar and steel), Jeff Taylor (piano and accordion), Matty Meyer, Billy Contreras (fiddle), Lloyd Green (pedal steel), Brennen Leigh, Noel McKay and Sierra Ferrell (harmony vocals)… Melissa Carper war mit ihrer “The Carper Family” bei der Bluegrass Jamboree Tour 2013 in Deutschland dabei !

rares Album mit einem Live Konzert der Band um Tim O'Brien und Pete Wernick aus dem Jahr 1984 + Red Knuckles And The Trailblazers mit Songs wie MY LITTLE DARLIN' - LET ME LOVE YOU ONE MORE TIME - YOUR LIGHT LEADS ME ON oder TEXAS HAMBONE BLUES

1987 - The combo of vocalist/fiddler/mandolinist Tim O' Brien and banjo player Pete Wernick was never stronger than on Hot Rize's 1987 release Untold Stories. Never as "progressive" as some of their peers (New Grass Revival, the Seldom Scene, Country Gazette), Hot Rize were able to hold on to the trappings of traditional roots music without ever letting it sound stale or too "old-timey." The underrated vocals of O'Brien harmonize beautifully with Wernick and bassist Nick Foster, and the dobro playing of the ubiquitous Jerry Douglas soars over several tracks.

1982 - Hot Rize Presents Red Knuckles & the Trailblazers recorded live in Niwot, Colorado in 1982. This Colorado-based band is comprised of first-rate musicians steeped in the tradition, letter-perfect pickin’ and strong, pile-driving bluegrass harmonies, but with a few contemporary notions of their own! Red Knuckles/Tim O'Brien (vocal & acoustic guitar), Wendell Mercantile/Nick Foster (electric guitar), Waldo Otto/Pete Wernick (steel guitar) + Slade/Charles Sawtelle (bass)
