April Verch and her band send virtual hugs, messages of strength and comfort, and news of their many projects and collaborations. April's e-newsletter has enough links to one or another of them to keep anyone going for a long time, and the BIB specially recommends the audio player on her website - try 'Big eared mule', for instance, and see if you don't feel a lot better.*
Two weeks ago, the BIB reported that Cedar Hill (USA), the hard-core traditional bluegrass band from the Ozarks of Missouri and Arkansas, had signed with Mountain Fever Records, and that a new release by the band was to be expected soon. Well, their exciting new single, 'How deep is the lonesome' (written by Mark 'Brink' Brinkman and Kevin T. Hale), is now out and can be streamed or bought here. It can be heard in full on Bluegrass Today or YouTube. More details are on the Mountain Fever release.Labels: concerts, Jams, Old-time, Recordings, Video
