Bluegrass Breakdown: Deep Things, Part Two

It’s one of those words that can be an adjective, noun, or adverb. As an adjective it means extending far down from the top as well as very intense or extreme. As a noun it refers to the sea. As an adverb it means far down or in. And as the fodder for great bluegrass songs it has few equals. With the expert guidance of Ronnie Reno, Travis Chandler & Avery County, Jake & Rebekah Workman, and Alison Brown, we’ll be checking out the many deep things of BluegrassLand.
