Josh Williams & Michael Martin Murphey

This sent in by Tony Williams.

On Friday, April 3rd, 2009, The Josh Williams Band was asked to back up legendary western singer, Michael Martin Murphey at Owensboro Kentucky’s eighth annual "Bluegrass Returns to Its Roots Festival."  Josh Williams said, "the band and I felt honored to perform with Michael, as we all think he is one of America’s Premier singer-songwriters.  I recorded his "Carolina In The Pines" with "Special Consensus" several years ago, and it is still one of my most requested songs So it was a special thrill to get to perform that song with him!"

And here a couple photos he sent along of the Josh Williams Band with Michael Martin Murphey.
