Listen to a conversation with the virtuoso multi-instrumentalist, vocalist, and bandleader, Ricky Skaggs. Born in Kentucky in 1954, Skaggs has played a central role in shaping modern bluegrass and country music. A child prodigy, he first performed on stage with Bill Monroe at age six, and at age seven he appeared on national television with Lester Flatt and Earl Scruggs.  Before turning 18, Skaggs had already performed with many of the greatest legends in bluegrass. At age 15, he and his childhood friend Keith Whitley joined Ralph Stanley's Clinch Mountain Boys. In the 1970s, Skaggs' musicianship helped redefine progressive bluegrass through his work with the Country Gentlemen, J.D. Crowe & the New South, and Emmylou Harris' Hot Band. He launched his solo career in the early 1980s and became a leading figure in the neotraditional country movement. His string of #1 hits — including “Crying My Heart Out Over You,” “Highway 40 Blues,” and “Heartbroke” — made him one of the decade's most influential artists. During this period he earned multiple CMA Awards, including Entertainer of the Year in 1985, as well as several Grammy Awards. In the 1990s, Skaggs returned his focus to bluegrass, forming his acclaimed band Kentucky Thunder. In 2018, Skaggs was inducted into both the Country Music Hall of Fame and the Bluegrass Music Hall of Fame—one of the few artists to receive both honors. He is also a member of the Grand Ole Opry. Skaggs has performed and recorded with a wide range of legendary artists across many genres, including Jack White, Ray Charles, Johnny Cash, Dolly Parton, Charlie Haden, Bruce Hornsby, Béla Fleck, John Fogerty, and Dionne Warwick, among many others. Across his decades-long career, Ricky Skaggs' contributions as a singer, mandolinist, fiddler, bandleader, and tradition-bearer have secured his legacy as one of the most important figures in American roots music. Ricky Skaggs and Kentucky Thunder will present a special Christmas concert at the Brown County Music Center on December 11.

On this weeks' episode of Cosmic Cousins, Jeff Hinshaw first guides you through a deep dive exploration of the current transits connected to this Gemini Full Moon.  Then, Jeff is joined by one of his cosmic siblings, the incredibly talented Gemini, Mary Evans of Spirit Speak. Together, they flutter into the mutable magic of Gemini through storytelling, curiosity, and duality. Mary and Jeff explore Gemini archetypes across astrology, popular culture, and personal experience, including butterfly symbolism inspired by Dolly Parton's “Love Is Like a Butterfly.” The conversation also delves into personal and spiritual experiences, from Mary's childhood encounters with death and spirit guides to reflections on how these formative experiences shape creativity, art-making, deck creation, and teaching. Mary is the founder of Spirit Speak Tarot, and the creator of six tarot and oracle decks, so naturally the conversation also explores tarot and divination.  This includes Temperance and the Lovers, reflecting Gemini's adaptability, duality, and relational dynamics. She also discusses her work with children and adults through school programs, art workshops, and community-based “Witch Craft" arts and crafts nights, highlighting the spiritual and creative development fostered through art. And towards the end of their conversation, we listen to the song "Oh My God" by Gemini Ryan Allen Gray's, providing a lens on Gemini themes of queerness, religious trauma and integration of self. Listener questions spark final discussions on fashion as archetypal expression, navigating 2025 as a Hermit Year, and twin/soul-sibling dynamics. Recorded for the Gemini Full Moon, this episode is a playful and illuminating journey through mutable skies, offering insight, inspiration, and guidance for creating in a world of multiplicity. __________________________________________________ The Online Fools Tarot Journey 6-Month Ritual Immersion through the Major Arcana The next evolution of the Online Fools Tarot Journey — a six-month ritual immersion into the living wisdom of the Major Arcana — has arrived!

A hummingbird at a window. Santa Ana winds rattling the night. A promise to Vince Gill that forced the album to finally exist. Our conversation with Annie Bosco traces the real road behind California Cowgirl, a 19-song debut forged from writer's rooms, wildfire skies, and the stubborn belief that the right song shows up when you keep showing up.We talk about the Malibu retreat that sparked a creative streak—Tequila Time, Country Girls Who Runs The World, Bright And Blue Sky, Maliblue—written with bags packed in case the hillside burned. Annie explains how collaborations took shape through brave asks and long-built relationships: Vince Gill, Raul Malo, Dwight Yoakam, and Amy Grant. God Winks becomes the emotional anchor, born from family language for life's quiet green lights and strengthened by stories that make small miracles feel close. Hearing Annie share lines and context connects the dots between hook craft and heart craft, between a clever turn and a lyric that lingers.California Cowgirl isn't a coastal caricature; it's a farmer's daughter with Bakersfield roots and Nashville mileage, embracing authenticity after years of trying to fit a mold. We dig into the changing city—fewer chance meetings on Music Row, more digital noise—and pull out practical advice: treat rejection like weather, keep writing, and let identity lead strategy. Annie opens up about recent milestones—festival stages, a top 40 moment, a national brand campaign, even an upcoming date opening for Dolly Parton—and the winter plan to turn the faucet on full for new songs.If you care about the story behind the song, the resilience behind the voice, and the craft behind a debut that actually has miles on it, you'll feel at home here. Hit play, share with a friend who needs a push to stay authentic, and if this conversation moves you, subscribe, leave a review, and tell us which track or lyric stayed with you.

Dolly Parton BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Dolly Parton has been the focus of significant attention over the past several days as she navigates ongoing health challenges while maintaining her characteristic spirit and gratitude. The 79-year-old country music icon shared a heartfelt Thanksgiving message with fans on November 28th, appearing in a video where she wished everyone blessings for the holiday and expressed her deep appreciation for their support over the years. She looked radiant in a beige jacket with her signature blonde curls and warm smile intact, telling fans she would always love them.This Thanksgiving appearance marked a notable moment given Parton's recent health struggles. Earlier in November, she was forced to skip several major public events, including the Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award ceremony at the Governors Awards on November 16th and the International Association of Amusement Parks and Attractions Hall of Fame induction on November 17th, both of which she accepted virtually. She explained in pre-recorded messages that her doctors advised her to take it easy for a while as she deals with health challenges.According to reports, Parton has been dealing with kidney stones and other unspecified health issues, which prompted her to postpone her Las Vegas residency that was originally scheduled for October. The residency is now rescheduled for September 17 through 26, 2026. Her sister Freida's public prayer request for the singer sparked some concern among fans, though Freida later clarified she didn't intend to alarm anyone. Parton herself addressed the situation, explaining that following her husband Carl Dean's death in March after nearly 60 years of marriage, she hadn't taken proper care of herself and neglected medical attention that needed addressing.Despite these challenges, Parton remains optimistic about her future. In a recent interview with People magazine, she emphasized that she's still getting started with her career aspirations, dismissing retirement talk by stating she won't allow herself to get old and has no time to dwell on age. She reiterated that unless her health significantly deteriorates—which she says isn't currently the case—she intends to keep working and pursuing her dreams. Her message across all recent communications has been consistent: she's handling her health seriously, appreciating fan support, and remaining focused on her passion for music and entertainment as she approaches her 80th birthday.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

Wearing an armoured breastplate, clasping a silver cross and seizing an Army spontoon, 31 year old Elizabeth Petrovna appeared at the HQ of the elite Preobrazhensky Regiment guards in St. Petersburg on 25th November, 1741 - intent on over-throwing Tzar Ivan VI (a baby), and seizing the Russian throne for herself. Although she was the daughter of Peter The Great, she was also illegitimate, and overlooked in the line of succession. But her coup was bloodless, and she oversaw a productive cultural period for the dynasty - including her role in selecting Catherine The Great. In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly recall Elizabeth's fondness for food, fashion and f***ing; posit that her husband Alexis Razumovsky was a bit like Dolly Parton's beau Carl Dean; and explain why, if you're staging a coup, you should always slit your drums… Further Reading: • ‘Elizabeth I, Empress of All Russia' (Unofficial Royalty, 2018): http://www.unofficialroyalty.com/empress-elizabeth-i-of-russia/ • ‘Decadent Facts About Empress Elizabeth Of Russia, The Last Romanov' (Factinate): https://www.factinate.com/people/empress-elizabeth/ • ‘St Petersburg Palaces of the Romanovs' (RT, 2021): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a3LRMZfmAsU This episode was first aired in 2021 Love the show?

Dolly Parton BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Dolly Parton just can't be kept out of the headlines even when she's not physically able to attend events. On November 16, Dolly accepted her first Oscar—the Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award—at the Academy's Governor Awards, delivered via a heartfelt video message filmed in Nashville. According to People and Cat Country, Parton beamed about being “blessed more than I ever dreamed possible,” with a touching nod to her charitable efforts, especially the Imagination Library project that's put 285 million books into kids' hands worldwide. Lily Tomlin, her legendary 9 to 5 co-star, presented the honor, solidifying a four-decade Hollywood friendship and giving a biographically critical moment of recognition for a lifetime of service.But Dolly's acceptance came under a health cloud. The Today Show and Global News both highlighted how Dolly has been open about experiencing recent health challenges, requiring her to postpone her much-hyped Las Vegas concert run at Caesars Palace. She addressed fans directly in multiple video appearances, explaining her absence not only from Vegas but also from a milestone Dollywood event, where the famed attraction was inducted into a Hall of Fame to mark its 40th year. While specifics about her condition remain private, her remarks radiate resilience, and nowhere on social media has she suggested these are anything but temporary setbacks.Despite these health issues, Dolly's work endures. The musical Smoky Mountain Christmas Carol, featuring her original songs and that signature Dolly sparkle, kicked off a 2025 U.S. national tour this week with stops in over 20 cities. The production, as covered by DollyParton.com and the Carson Center's Broadway series materials, has been lauded by both cast and fans as a moving update of Dickens, reimagined through a distinctly Appalachian lens and aiming to become a new holiday tradition.Off the main stage, Dolly Parton's symphonic multimedia experience, Threads: My Songs in Symphony, brought orchestras and guest vocalists together in Raleigh for an immersive celebration of her songwriting legacy, complete with her on-screen narration. According to the North Carolina Symphony, the experience weaves performance, biography, and musical story in ways that continue to redefine country music's public profile.As for buzz, Dolly's social media has stayed focused on gratitude for her awards, boosting the tour's ticket sales, and reassuring fans that, as she herself put it, “the threads of my life are woven together through my songs.” There's plenty of tongue-wagging about her health, but not from Dolly herself; the legend is keeping it positive, visible, and, as always, deeply connected to the people. With an Oscar finally on her shelf, a Broadway-bound symphony, and a beloved Christmas tour underway, Dolly Parton remains as much a force of nature as Tennessee's own Smokies.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI
