This morning (1/30) just after 9:00 a.m., he will join Katy Daley on WAMU’s Bluegrass Country to talk about he and the band’s plans for ‘09. Katy tells us that she expects to discuss the upcoming McCoury retrospective project, 50-50 (Fifty Songs for Fifty Years), Delfest 2009… and the Big 7-0!

Del turns 70 years old this Sunday, February 1.

Listen to Katy online at www.bluegrasscountry.org, or on HD Radio 88.5 channel 2 in the DC metro area.

On Saturday, you can catch the Del McCoury Band on The Marty Stuart Show on RFD-TV. The show airs at 8:00 p.m. (EST) and is carried on DIRECTV and many cable carriers throughout the US.

They will pick and sing, and talk with Marty about all things Del.
