Any Blue Grass Fans?

[The Excession]

I love some Blue Grass tunes, just a shame that most of them are so depressing. (Uncle Tupelo is one of my favourites).

Just turned on the radio and there is a bluegrass session playing, absolutely lovely, really hoping that I'll get the name of the chap playing.

Any recommendations?

ETA:

It was Huck Notari, utterly divine, I love the sound of a mandolin (or banjo), brings up bumps on my skin.


Some Uncle Tupleo:
here - with a motoring theme
miserable bluegrass stuff
earlier stuff (a bit more rocky - they used to be a grunge band!)

Damn fvcking annoyed I missed them when playing their UK dates back in the 90s.

Area Code 615 ?

Wiki

Mainly covers of 60's hits (when they were current) in a distinctive blue-grass, picked banjo driven style. They only ever cut two LP's.

Stone Fox Chase of course being their most famous recording here in UK, though personally their version of Hey Jude gets my vote

Seems more country rock to me? Hasn't quite got that blue grass feel to it - maybe the lack of mandolin/banjo and pressence of the harmonica? Still good though.

MAybe a bit more like this

Not a devout blue grass fan, but I like a bit of Hayseed Dixie.

Take a listen to this bluegrass station based in Washington DC. I listen to it a lot and it's down home great...
