New CD in the works from Jim Lauderdale
We recently received a note letting us know that Jim Lauderdale has just wrapped up recording on a new bluegrass CD. Lauderdale’s last bluegrass CD, Bluegrass, was one of my favorite recordings of the last year.
This new CD was produced by dobro player Randy Kohrs. Randy describes the new CD as “bluegrass with a classic-country edge.” Every song on the project was either written, or co-written, by Lauderdale.
The line up of musicians on this CD is impressive.
- Cia Cherryholmes
- Dave Evans
- Shawn Camp
- Randy Kohrs
- Jesse Cobb
- Cody Kilby
- Clay Hess
- Jay Weaver
- Richard Bailey
- Bryn Davies
- Ashley Brown
Look for this new release from Jim Lauderdale to be released on Yep Roc Records sometime in September of 2007.
