Quick Hits: Hiram Ring, Aaron Moses, and Matt Bradford
I have been finding some pretty incredible artists this year and I’d like to feature a few in this version of quick hits. These guys (okay there’s one common thread) are singer songwriters of the highest order. Their acoustic jams will get toes …
The Barefoot Movement – Figures of the Year
Bluegrass is a genre that often get overlooked because it can be grating. The fiddles, the banjos, the vocals can all be turn offs to the casual music listener. One of the reasons that Nickel Creek was so successful was their ability to …

Hey Rosetta! – Graceland (Paul Simon cover)
This video doesn’t technically qualify under the arbitrary standards we have set for ourselves for youtube videos. However, it’s about a lesser known band and an amazing video. I’m not sure what more you could ask for. This is Hey Rosetta! performing “Graceland” …
