This week, a special road trip episode featuring up and coming California based bluegrass phenomenon AJ Lee & Blue Summit recorded live at the 2024 Walnut Valley Festival in Winfield, Kansas. Also, a bonus performance from IBMA award winning hit maker Chris Jones & The Night Drivers. The annual Walnut Valley Festival, now in it's 53rd season, is one of the oldest and most respected acoustic music festivals in the world. Held at the Winfield, Kansas fairgrounds, more than 30 musical acts will perform on four separate stages, presenting over 200 hours of live music. Also, there is a dedicated contest stage where contestants vie for national and international championships in Finger Style Guitar, Flat Pick Guitar, Bluegrass Banjo, Old Time Fiddle, Mandolin, Mountain Dulcimer, Hammered Dulcimer, and Autoharp. There is a juried arts and crafts fair, exhibits by renowned instrument makers and music shops, family activities, a bevy of food vendors, a farmer's market and even a pub! An unusual aspect of Walnut Valley is its campground tradition. Campsites are not reserved and campers line up to claim a choice campsite during the "Land Rush.” Walnut Valley Festival goers often bring their own musical instruments to participate in the sometimes all night campground jam sessions. Bands like Old Sound, that began as "Jam Bands" in the campgrounds, have even been invited to perform at the festival. AJ Lee & Blue Summit are an award-winning energetic, charming, and technically jaw-dropping band quickly rising on the national roots music scene. Based in Santa Cruz, California, the group met as teenagers, picking and jamming together as kids at local music festivals and jams until one day, they decided they would be a band.  Their first gigs were local, small venues, cafes, restaurants, coffee shops, where they'd play for multiple hours honing their set list and learning shared musical vocabularies. Now, as they criss-cross the country performing hundreds of shows a year to larger and larger audiences, you can sense the intention they had back then – to make music together not for just aspirational reasons, but because it's fun – and it's all you want to do as young musicians. Currently made up of Lee on mandolin, fiddler Jan Purat, and guitarists Scott Gates & Sullivan Tuttle, the band carries that youthful, festival-parking-lot energy with them still today, but at the same time there's a genuine ease and confidence to their music making. This is not the bluegrass of ambitious musicians intent on industry success, this is music made firstly for the joy of making it and primarily made for each other. https://www.bluesummitmusic.com/about-us-1 Chris Jones & the Night Drivers make some of the most distinctively elegant yet driving bluegrass music heard anywhere today. Deeply rooted in tradition but never bound to it, they deliver original music with tight arrangements, emotional authenticity, and engaging humor. Collectively, Chris Jones & the Night Drivers have won 12 IBMA awards and have racked up 24 #1 songs. In July of 2022, they made their debut on The Grand Ole Opry and were soon asked to return. In this week's “From the Vault” segment, OHR producer Jeff Glover offers a 1984 archival recording of Ozark originals Bob Momich & Adam Fudge performing a banjo duet on the tune “Protecting the Innocent,” from the Ozark Folk Center State Park archives. In this week's guest host segment, renowned traditional folk musician, writer, and step dancer Aubrey Atwater dives deep into Aesop's classic fable about the ant & the grasshopper.

Callum Kerr is a rising Scottish actor and country singer making waves on both screen and stage. Born in Musselburgh, Scotland, on May 11, 1994, he originally had plans to pursue a career in finance before the acting bug bit. After a stint with the National Youth Theatre of Scotland, he trained in London and soon found himself swapping spreadsheets for scripts. His breakthrough role came as PC George Kiss in the British soap Hollyoaks, where he appeared from 2020 to 2021. That role set the stage for bigger opportunities, including a part in FOX's country-music drama Monarch, and eventually a turn as young Everett in the hit Netflix series Virgin River.Callum's acting career is on an impressive upward trajectory. In 2025, he'll appear in not one but two major fantasy franchises. He's set to play Smoker in Season 2 of Netflix's live-action adaptation of One Piece and Galad Trakand in Amazon's The Wheel of Time Season 3. These roles showcase not just his versatility but his ability to transition between genres—from gritty soap drama to epic high fantasy.In addition to acting, Kerr has found a second home in Nashville's country music scene. He released his debut single “Tequila Therapy” in 2023, followed by “Tamed in Tennessee” (a duet with fellow artist Chris Andreucci) and “Cold Beer Cold,” which has garnered over 500,000 Spotify streams. His authentic country sound, mixed with a bit of Scottish soul, has earned him a growing fan base on both sides of the Atlantic.April 2025 marked another milestone as Callum signed his first major record deal with ONErpm Nashville and Huff Co., the production company helmed by country hitmaker Dann Huff. His debut EP, Roots Under Me, is set for release on July 25, 2025. The six-song collection reflects on themes of heartbreak, home, and growth, hand-picked from a pool of more than 50 demos. He also made his debut at CMA Fest and graced the legendary stage of the Grand Ole Opry, solidifying his credibility as a country artist to watchCallum Kerr's story is one of resilience, reinvention, and relentless talent. Whether he's portraying a cop, a cowboy, or a swordsman, or singing about love and loss on a country stage, he brings an honesty and heart that audiences connect with. With a major EP launch and high-profile acting roles ahead, Kerr is just getting started—and it's clear he's not slowing down anytime soon.

Bryce Leatherwood is only 25 years old, but three years ago he won Season 22 of The Voice, and he just released a self-titled debut album that's already gaining a lot of attention. Despite his age, Bryce's new record sounds like it could have come out a long time ago, and that's exactly what he was after. Many of the songs were inspired by the simple life of his hometown in Woodstock, Georgia, where he grew up, and Macon, where he spent a lot of time riding horses and dirt bikes on his grandfather's farm. When we spoke, Bryce had just lost his grandfather to cancer a couple of weeks earlier, and he talked about what an inspiration he was, both in terms of music and as a role model in life. He also shared the story behind a new song called “Job Well Done” that he recently wrote in honor of his grandfather's memory. Sid talked to Bryce about the best friend he gained from his time on the Voice, what he learned from being a high school wrestler, and why his debut on the Grand Ole Opry was the best night of his life.

It's a positive, upbeat song with a reggae beat about the pleasures that we get from everyday events in our lives.“Lou's Blues” is my Jazz Fusion tone poem. I wrote it in the studio and we recorded it in one take.“The Gift” took my love song ballad and was transformed by Michael Abene, Grammy winning arranger, into a big band samba.

We chat about how he balances life on stage and on the camera while creating music that reflects his journey from small-town Nebraska to global adventures.Lucas shares the inspiration behind his deeply personal album, including songs like “Farmhand” and “When A Cowboy Prays” (featuring Yellowstone's Forrie J. Smith), and how faith, community, and storytelling drive his songwriting. We also dive into what it's like filming Hoge Wild around the world, his conservation message, and why supporting the military and charities like Guardian Angels for Soldier's Pet means so much to him.From barn roots to beach vibes, and from Billboard charts to the Grand Ole Opry stage — Lucas reflects on the journey, the lessons, and what's coming next.Jonathan's Drinking: Penelope Tokaji Cask Finish

In recent years, Tami Neilson has been learning to carry both great joy and great sorrow simultaneously. The New Zealand-based, Canada-born powerhouse's new album, 'Neon Cowgirl,' is named after the towering electric figure on a sign that's overlooked Broadway in Nashville, watching over Tami's career since she was 16 years old. The songs were born from a five-month family road trip combined with a major musical tour that would allow Tami the once-in-a-lifetime chance to really give it her all with her career. It was the chance for her children to experience what her life was like at their age, when she toured the country with her family's band, led by her eccentric and wildly lovable dreamer-father, Ron Neilson. Before she got the chance to hit the road for that trip, Tami landed in the ICU with sepsis and nearly lost her life. She blessedly recovered, but found that all her priorities centered around trip/tour had changed.In our Basic Folk conversation, we talk about the songs on 'Neon Cowgirl,' her dear friendship and collaborations with Willie Nelson, and Tami's exciting performances at the Grand Ole Opry. One of the songs on 'Neon Cowgirl,' "Keep On," was inspired by a cosmic conversation she had with Wynonna Judd. Judd, to her surprise, quoted the same exact phrase – "Keep on, keep on, keep on” – that Tami's late father had written in one of her most cherished letters. We also talk a lot about her brother, Jay Neilson. For all of her career and life, Jay has been by her side as her guitarist, co-writer, and musical partner. Last July, Jay suffered a rare and debilitating brain injury that he is still recovering from. Tami and Jay have not been able to perform together since that injury. She shares what it's been like to be without Jay and how it's been for him to be so public about his condition.Tami Neilson and I first connected during the pandemic. She was a guest on the podcast after she released her 2020 album, 'Chickaboom!' Since then, I have loved following her career, listening to her new music, and experiencing her highs and lows. She's one of my favorite guests and I'm thrilled to welcome Tami back to talk about her wonderful new record.Follow Basic Folk on social media: https://basicfolk.bio.link/  Sign up for Basic Folk's newsletter: https://bit.ly/basicfolknews  Help produce Basic Folk by contributing: https://basicfolk.com/donate/ Interested in sponsoring us?

On today's show, we chat with two-time guest, Anne Wilson!God Story is a soul-baring anthem of survival, grief and divine redemption, rooted in pain but rising in praise. Written by Anne with frequent collaborators Matthew West and Jeff Pardo, the track captures Anne at her most vulnerable, tracing the scars of loss with a voice that's equal parts broken and bold. Sonically steeped in country-pop uplift and gospel grit, the song mirrors her own journey through unthinkable tragedy – the death of her brother Jacob – to the healing hope she now shares onstage. One of Nashville's most inspiring young trailblazers, Anne Wilson is a revolution in modern music. The Lexington, Ky. native, known for her transcendent vocal and down-to-earth storytelling, recently released her new single, “God Story.” Her last album, REBEL, featured her hopeful, healing debut Country single “Rain In The Rearview” as well as her chart-topping Christian radio ballad “Strong.” The genre-bending album followed her GRAMMY-nominated 2022 debut “My Jesus,” with the title track becoming a PLATINUM-certified No. 1 hit on Billboard's Christian Airplay chart. Since then, Wilson has tallied over 1 Billion global streams, made her Grand Ole Opry debut, and wrapped her entirely sold-out headlining My Jesus Tour. Already named a Spotify Hot Country Artist to Watch, one of CMT's Next Women of Country, and a 2024 Opry Next Stage Artist, she has made high-profile appearances on TODAY and ACM Honors, while earning her first-ever CMT Music Awards nomination, as well as a Billboard Music Award.annewilsonofficial.com@annewilsonmusicchristianmusicguys.com@christianmusicguys

Recorded: June 09, 2025 Will Compton and Taylor Lewan are joined by one of the fastest-rising stars in country music, Zach Top, recently named 2025 ACM New Male Artist of the Year. With his breakout hit "Good Times & Tan Lines" and a sound that blends bluegrass with '90s country nostalgia, Zach is quickly becoming a household name in Music City. Before the interview, Taylor Lewan addresses his viral first pitch debacle at the St. Louis Cardinals game, giving fans his full breakdown of what really happened. Will Compton then recaps an unforgettable weekend at UFC 316 with Dana White—including an unexpected run-in with President Donald Trump. In the interview, Zach Top opens up about his musical journey, including the early days of his family band Top String, his move to Nashville, and the mentor who helped guide his career. He shares honest thoughts on the current state of country music, the transition from bluegrass to mainstream, and what it felt like to finally play the Grand Ole Opry. Zach also talks about meeting legends like George Strait and Alan Jackson. On the lighter side, the boys dive into pre-show rituals, life on the road, a potential future Beer Olympics appearance, and Zach’s close-knit relationship with his bandmates. In Ro Spicy Tier Talk, they break down the best love songs of all time. Plus, Zach responds to the Bud Light "What Would You Do Anything For?" challenge and teases what’s next—could a new album be dropping soon? Father's Day Merch Available @ BWTB.com!
