 As we've been examining over the course of Country Week, country music has found a larger audience, in part by widening its sonic palette. For the final episode of this series, we take a look at a genre on the outskirts of country – Americana music – and how it's being used to connect to the scene's musical roots.   Historically, Americana has embraced an acoustic sound, traditional repertoire, and an appetite for virtuosic technique. In bluegrass artists like Billy Strings and roots musicians like Sierra Ferrell, Nate and Charlie see if there's an antidote to be found for the issues that plague modern, mainstream country music. Songs discussed: The Punch Brothers – Rye Whiskey Sierra Ferrell – In Dreams Dolly Parton – Jolene Sierra Ferrell – I Could Drive You Crazy Sierra Ferrell, Zach Bryan – Holy Roller Billy Strings – Dust in a Baggie Billy Strings, Willie Nelson – California Sober Tyler Childers – In Your Love Tyler Childers – Phone Calls and Emails Tyler Childers – Rustin' In The Rain Don Gibson – Oh, Lonesome Me Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson – Mamas, Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up To Be Cowboys The Chicks – Long Time Gone The Steeldrivers – Higher Than the Wall Beyoncé – Texas Hold'em I'm With Her – Espresso Learn more about your ad choices.

Filled with tons of antics, the music is top-notch with Andy's band, The U.N., continuing to totally bring it.  They come to play and the energy is super infectious.With Growing Pains, Andy's unique lyricism is on full display and is filled with heartfelt confessions, life advice and empowering messages — much like his live shows.

Founder of Billboard World #1 band We Banjo 3, he has performed with renownedartists like The Chieftains, Billy Strings, and Mumford & Sons.

We are extremely excited to have Mason Via join us for this week's episode of No Simple Road! Mason opens up about the highs and lows of touring life, balancing the demands of performance with personal health, and finding harmony between the expectations of a musician's life and the realities of constant travel. Our conversation meanders through Mason's experiences growing up in a festival community, where he honed his craft at fiddlers conventions, finding the soul of music in lively campgrounds rather than grand stages. We discuss the delicate balance between achieving fame and maintaining genuine fan connections, inspired by artists like Billy Strings who masterfully blend mainstream appeal with grassroots intimacy. Mason reflects on the resurgence of bluegrass music and the crucial role of community in both its education and practice, where collaboration and rhythm create a powerful, transcendent experience. We also touch on the instructional side of bluegrass, with a nod to influential educators like Jim Panky and Marcel Ardans, who champion the communal and instructional spirit of this enduring genre. Finally, Mason sheds light on his personal life, celebrating his recent marriage and aspirations of settling back in Nashville, proving that the journey of a musician is as much about personal growth as it is about performance.

We call guitarist Adam Miller in the middle of the night in Newcastle, Australia, to find out what it's like to play with Certified Guitar Player, Tommy Emmanuel. Miller tells us just how famous Tommy is in Australia, and what it was like hearing him play from a formative age. Eventually, Adam got to open for Emmanuel, and they've since shared the stage, so we get the firsthand scoop: Why is Tommy's take on “Day Tripper” so hard? And what song would Miller never play with him? Plus, we get Adam's list of favorite Tommy Emmanuel records.Plus, we're talking about new recordings from Billy Strings and Bryan Sutton, as well as Brooklyn Mediterranean surf party band Habbina Habbina.Check out Adam's new album, Timing, here: https://www.adammiller.com.au/This episode is sponsored by Maton Guitars: https://maton.com.au/Follow Nick: https://www.instagram.com/nickmillevoiFollow Jason: https://www.instagram.com/jasonshadrickGet at us: 100guitarists@premierguitar.comCall/Text: 319-423-9734Podcast powered by Sweetwater.

The Slanted Attic Experience – Episode 31: Book Club Series – The Old Man and the SeaWe're back with the second chapter of our Slanted Attic Book Club Series, and this time we're casting our nets deep into Ernest Hemingway's legendary novella, The Old Man and the Sea. Host Tyler is joined by Graham, Coleman, Luis, and Hunter for a wide-ranging, reflective, and occasionally hilarious roundtable on one of the most quietly powerful stories ever written.Meet the Panel:Graham – A Tobacco Road native and lifelong Duke fan, Graham sharpened his sports edge at Virginia Tech and now splits his weekends between Hokie football and Premier League mornings with Brighton & Hove Albion.Hunter – A VT grad who's bounced from North Carolina hemp fields to Colorado cannabis farms, Hunter is back in Richmond, focusing on his golf game and locking down his spot as the most unpredictable guest in podcasting.Coleman – Raised in Richmond, Coleman finds peace in the outdoors and live music—especially jam bands like Phish and Billy Strings. A loyal Hokie and long-suffering Blackhawks fan, he brings both insight and soul to every conversation.Luis – Born in Mexico, raised in California, and educated at VT, Luis is a true renaissance man. He's always building, always learning—whether it's in LA's creative scene or on a mountain weekend escape.In This Episode:We open with a full recap of Santiago's journey—the old fisherman who refuses to quit. Then, the conversation flows into the deeper waters of Hemingway's themes: perseverance, aging, pride, isolation, and how we define meaning in our personal battles.We talk about how the simplicity of the story carries such weight—and how it leaves so much open for interpretation. Was Santiago's journey a victory or a quiet loss? Does the sea represent freedom or punishment? And how does the marlin mirror our own quests for purpose?The group also compares The Old Man and the Sea to other works with similar tones—from survival stories to meditative fiction—and we share the takeaways that stuck with us most. Hunter talks connection to nature, Graham dives into symbolism, Luis explores philosophical undercurrents, and Coleman, of course, throws in a fishing story.We round things out with overall thoughts and our final ratings:Coleman: 8.75/10Graham: 8.3/10Hunter: 9.1/10Luis: 9/10Tyler: 9.2/10This episode is all about reflection—on literature, on life, and on what it means to go out into deep water with nothing but hope, skill, and determination.New episodes drop bi-weekly on Mondays at 10:30 AM EST—plus the occasional surprise release!linktr.ee/slantedattic

It took a long time after I first read David Menconi's work to finally meet him, and longer still to sit with him for an extended conversation, but fortunately, the time has finally come. And if the saying “good things come to those who wait” applies here, if I was indeed waiting years for that Tuesday afternoon interview in late September 2024, then it is doubly appropriate now that our conversation sees the light of day in this podcast nearly another half a year afterwards. Decades after first reading his work, more than a year after first meeting him, and another stretch of months after interviewing him, now is the moment for all of this to come together. It all feels a bit fortuitous, a feeling which is echoed in our conversation, especially regarding the subject of David Menconi's latest book. David Menconi was a staff writer at the Raleigh News & Observer for 28 years, beginning in 1991, when the music scene in the region was exploding nationwide. He has also written for Rolling Stone, Billboard, Spin and New York Times. His latest book is titled Oh, Didn't They Ramble: Rounder Records and the Transformation of American Roots Music. David Menconi spoke with me at the IBMA conference in his adopted hometown of Raleigh, North Carolina, in a conversation which touches on the remarkable story of Rounder Records, a music label whose story, as David put it, is the kismet story. A label formed by three idealistic folkies fresh out of college, it went on to champion the music of artists ranging from Alice Gerard to Alison Krauss, from the Blake Babies to Billy Strings, and from Ted Hawkins to Tony Rice. David talks about the Rounder Records story, the current state of the music industry, the challenges faced by writers and musicians alike, as well as the significant history of bluegrass music in the city of Raleigh and the state of North Carolina and more, including music excerpts from Rounder Records artists like Norman Blake and George Thorogood in this episode Southern Songs and Stories. David Menconi Songs heard in this episode:Tony Rice “Monroe's Hornpipe”, from The Bluegrass Album Band, Volume 6“Tango Cool“ by Ted Gioia & Mark Lewis, from Tango Cool, excerpt“Ginseng Sullivan” by Norman Blake, from Back Home In Sulphur Springs, excerpt“Move It On Over” by George Thorogood & the Destroyers, from Move It On Over, excerpt“Away From the Mire” by Billy Strings, from HomeThanks for being here!

When you imagine the tools of a guitar shredder, chances are you see a sharp-angled electric 6-string running into a smokin'-hot, fully saturated British halfstack of sorts—the type of thing that'll blow your hair back. You might not be picturing an acoustic steel-string or a banjo, and that's a mistake, because some of the most face-melting players to walk this earth work unplugged—like Molly Tuttle. The 31-year-old Californian has been performing live for roughly 20 years, following in a deep family tradition of roots-music players. Tuttle studied at Berklee College of Music, and has gone on to collaborate with some of the biggest names in bluegrass and folk, including Béla Fleck, Billy Strings, Buddy Miller, Sierra Hull, and Old Crow Medicine Show. Her 2023 record, City of Gold, won the Grammy for Best Bluegrass Album. The furious flatpicking solo on “San Joaquin,” off of that Grammy-winning record, is the subject of this unplugged episode of Shred With Shifty. Shiflett can shred on electric alright, but how does he hold up running leads on acoustic? It's a whole different ballgame. Thankfully, Tuttle is on hand, equipped with a Pre-War Guitars Co. 6-string, to demystify the techniques and gear that let her tear up the fretboard. Tune in to hear plenty of insider knowledge on how to amplify and EQ acoustics, what instruments can stand in for percussion in bluegrass groups, and how to improvise in bluegrass music.

Sierra Hull takes us on an evocative journey from her small-town roots in Tennessee to the grand stages of bluegrass music. With a passion for music ignited at just eight years old, her story is a heartfelt testament to the power of familial support and the welcoming embrace of the bluegrass community. Sierra shares intimate stories of how her parents cultivated her love for music, setting her on a path that was as much about family bonding as it was about honing her craft. Sierra provides an unfiltered look at her experiences navigating the music industry. Her insights reveal how she balances staying true to her artistic vision while facing the industry's challenges. We explore the dynamics of being a woman in a predominantly male genre and how role models like Alison Krauss and Rhonda Vincent shaped her ambitions. Sierra's anecdotes about collaborations with artists such as Billy Strings highlight the spontaneity and skill inherent in bluegrass music, offering listeners a glimpse of the exciting possibilities when musical minds meet. Our episode also delves into Sierra's foray into independent album production, with the release of her upcoming album 'A Tip Toe High Wire' due out March 7th, shedding light on the complexities and rewards of taking control of her creative journey. Her reflections on life transitions, from signing with a prestigious label to embracing independence, are enlightening for aspiring musicians. Join us as we celebrate Sierra's journey and the transformative power of music in shaping not just careers, but lives.
