Live at The Bluebird Cafe

The Americana Music Association has announced plans for the 2nd annual Live at The Bluebird Cafe concert series. Each Thursday, from February 18th through March 25th, fans can witness some of Americana's most influential musicians in the intimate setting of the world famous Bluebird Cafe in Nashville. The shows are sponsored by the Gibson Foundation, an organization that supports music and arts in our schools and other important causes.

The series opens with the amazing Raul Malo, and on March 4th "White Trash In Your Living Room" is the theme as Rodney Crowell, Mary Gauthier, Minton Sparks and Elizabeth Cook each take the stage. Music Fog is anxious for Will Kimbrough to perform later in March, too. The full series schedule will be announced soon. For more info pop on over to the Americana Music Association or Bluebird Cafe websites. Save us a seat!

Kristen Kelly & Modern Day Drifters "Lost In Yourself"

We kept running into musicians in Steamboat and would usually slide them into a recording session the next day. Kristen Kelly & Modern Day Drifters gave us a call at the prompting of an artist friend of theirs, "You should call Music Fog." So they did. We invited. They jammed. We filmed. Don't you wish life was that easy?! That's the power and magic that is bottled up in Steamboat during the MusicFest. In fact, Kristen became engaged to be married the very next evening! And the hills are alive with the sound of music. Easy now...don't get "Lost in Yourself."

Dustin Welch "Sparrows"

From the Music Fog perspective, this is Dustin Welch and his banjo up close. Very close.

It always amazes me how Americana musicians and performers don't mind it (up close). It's because they are comfortable in their own skin. It also helps when each and every one of them are accomplished musicians. So we all get a treat and, if you look at the tape over and over again, you can get a lesson or two.

Thankx Dustin for letting us violate your personal space. In the process you have opened up your world to every one of your fans. And I certainly hope that you gain new ones here with Music Fog.
