      The album "Home" from Billy Strings has been on regular rotation lately, and this song is one of my favorites

        They opened their Red Rocks run with that one, @seawolf ; talk about comin' out swinging, the whole place erupted and 9,500 people were singing every word. What an amazing group they are. I can't think of a live act I enjoy more right now.

        I can't believe I'm saying that about a band without a drummer.

        All 3 of the albums with the current lineup are great. Hard to pick a favorite. I think "Renewal" has more of a timeless feel but "Home" is a masterpiece in its own right.

        Tying together my old timey post and BS:

        Also, if you look closely, you'll see my wife and me in the second row on this performance, where he played Red Rocks for the first time, opening for Greensky Bluegrass. I've never seen it that packed for an opener. In the classiest move ever, Greensky had Billy come up and sing one of his songs, "Meet Me at the Creek," for THEIR encore.

        Think it, be it.

          You guys "made" me put Billy Strings on again tonight.

          Thank you.

                  @mclaincausey and others you might be interested in this which I spotted on my FB newsfeed immediately after listening to the Red Rocks performance you shared.  Dom Flemons has been doing interesting stuff for a while and I expect this will be worth a listen.

                    The above quotes sum it all up pretty well!

                            Yeah, very Saturday morning vibey! Generally way into that whole laid back modern Brit jazz thing, hardly hear anything in that arena I don't like.

                                    Not tonight’s performance (strict concert hall etiquette) but this should give you a feel.

                                        Someone  at the barbershop clued me into a free Calexico show in Santa Fe.  I’ll be damned if those tix weren’t free.  Pretty pumped about that.
