If you'd like a very safe, (legal), extremely fun overdose of great mandolin picking*, this is for you.

I'm biased since all the mando pickers are my very good friends. But if you don't know a single one,

you'll know why after watching.

*Guitar, banjo and fiddle, too

 

Here's your first dose...

 

Special Guests: Marty Cutler on banjo, David Chernack on fiddle

One bright note in this terrible time is that I've had time to start editing and share one of the last videos I shot here at  the Hudson Valley Bluegrass Association. And it was a joyous time from one of the warmest and most genuine talents with band members to match.



Here's my first installment,which I hope finds you healthy and "hanging in there" like the rest of us, and brings you some well-needed distraction.

Recently I was editing my video of Jesse Brock & Streamliner's second set at my Hudson Valley Bluegrass Association, and came upon this beautiful song. I wanted to share it with you in these terrible times.

Thanks to band members Ellie Hakanson, Nico Laroche-Humby, and Greg Blake. Other members of the band are Jesse D. Brock and Mark Delaney.

I haven't been on here very much recently. I wanted to share with a little bit of good luck.

Two of my photos were included in Ken Burns' Country Music series on PBS.
