Bluegrass Breakdown: Gravel, Part Two

We’ll be continuing our look at bluegrassical gravel with more homages to gravel roads with some moonshining, grit, and dust thrown in for good measure—subjects which all curiously intertwine. Blue Highway, Psychograss, Nothin’ Fancy, Randall Hibbits, the Gravel Road Acoustic Trio, and the Gravel Yard Bluegrass Band will be around to make sure the job’s done right.
