Last week, we went to Cumberland Caverns near Manchester, TN, hiked down 400 ft
to the bottom of the huge cave, and played music. Phil Harris recorded the live sets performed by Travis Stinson and the Volunteer String Band, Nathan Lynn from Bawn in the Mash, and yours truly. I played a couple songs with Tyler Grant on banjo, a handful of solo tunes, and then was fortunate enough to play a couple of tunes with the Volunteer String Band, including a funky bluegrassy version of "Dusty Bibles"…The sessions will air on WSM 650 AM in September. WSM was the original broadcaster of the Grand Ole Opry back in the 20s and 30s, thus making country music (ala the Carter Family) and bluegrass (ala Bill Monroe) known the world over. WSM was the first radio station to broadcast worldwide. Thanks to Phil Harris, Travis Stinson, and the folks at Bluegrass Underground for making it happen…
