Monday!
Back on track after being off in Indiana, Kentucky, and Tennessee, seeing friends and music in Louisville, Nashville, Bagdad, Frankfort, Lexington, and especially Ringo Starr at The Ryman with T Bone Burnett, Jack White, Billy Strings, Molly Tuttle, Rodney Crowell, Sarah Jarosz, Larkin Poe, Emmylou Harris, Mickey Guyton, The War and Treaty, Jamey Johnson, Sheryl Crow, and even Brenda Lee onstage backed by a band including Mike Rojas, Daniel Tashian, David Mansfield, Dennis Crouch, Paul Franklin, and Jim Keltner… look for it as a CBS Special in the near future.
Look for some new onsales below and an updated Future Highlights post very soon.
