Raconteurs plus Ricky Skaggs

Thanks to Uri Kohen, organiser of the Westport Folk & Bluegrass Festival, for this link to the MSN video channel. The Raconteurs indie-rock group are shown recording the 'bluegrass version' of their song 'Old enough'. 'Bluegrass' here means that the band use drums, acoustic guitar, fiddle, upright bass, and - a big 'and' - Ricky Skaggs on mandolin and backing vocals, having a whale of a time.

The third annual Westport Festival will take place on 26-28 June 2009; see the Festival MySpace site for details.
