Hello, and thanks for stopping by to read our recap for the past month. Oh my, where to begin :-)
The new album is doing very well and once again we are very appreciative of all who make that possible, DJ's, radio stations, and fans alike. We were listed on the weekly Roots Music Report Top 50 Bluegrass Album Chart each week in August, as low as #15 and high as #3. One of our goals with this album was to reach out to Bluegrass Music and other genres, and so far we have. We were delighted to learn that The Folk Alliance International DJ Chart placed the album at #2 for the month of July, with three songs placing in the Top 25 for airplay. We'll make sure to report the August details when they become available. Thanks to Blue Ridge Outdoors Magazine for including a song from the album on their August "Trail Mix", a list of tunes from many different types of music. Missy also did a radio interview with Ron Cornett of Worldwide Bluegrass on August 5th and had a great time. In addition, we are the featured artist of the month on Mandozine Radio for September. Very nice of them to include us on their programming.
One sad note of news to report. Our dear friend Ron Murphy passed away late last month after a short battle with cancer. He and his wife Lora are an inspiration to the band, especially Missy and Artie, having performed and promoted Bluegrass Music for well over 30 years. He will be missed. Read about his accomplishments in this Bluegrass Today article.
We mentioned commemorative tees last month. They have arrived and are available for purchase, please visit our Store for details. If you like tie dye shirts this one is for you! In addition to the new one we also have our standard tees and our three albums. We are selling the two previous albums at discounted prices, please check them out and consider a package purchase.
We performed at a couple of very nice festivals in August, the Brown County Bluegrass Festival in Georgetown, OH and the Tri-State Bluegrass Festival in Kendallville, IN for the Northern Indiana Bluegrass Association. We had a great time at both shows and look forward to return dates there. If there are any venues where you would like to see us perform, please let us know via our Contact page.
From Missy, Tim, Jeff, Suzanna, and Artie, thank you!
