Steve Dilling Holiday tour/LRB recording 12/3

We mentioned a few days ago that IIIrd Tyme Out banjoist Steve Dilling had assembled a band of his fellow bluegrass professionals to perform on a brief tour in early December. We just got word that one of the tour dates, which will also include a show by Lonesome River Band, will be recorded by WAMU for eventual broadcast over the air, and on BluegrassCountry.org.

The show will be held this Sunday, December 3, at The Cultural Arts Center in Frederick, MD as a part of their Sunday Bluegrass concert series. Two shows will be held that day, a matinee at 3:00 p.m. and an evening performance at 7:00.

Ticket information can be found on the Sunday Bluegrass web site for folks in the area who may want to attend the show. Everyone knows how much fun it is to be present at the recording of a live show, right?

BluegrassCountry.org’s Katy Daly tells us that they don’t have a clear broadcast date in mind for this LRB/Dilling concert, but she promised to let us know as soon as it is set.

Katy also passed along that she and Jen Hitt, BluegrassCountry.org’s Production Director, are planning a series of specials intended to introduce their listeners to the art and technology involved in producing bluegrass instruments. We’ll keep you posted as those plans solidify.

    Steve Dilling holiday tour

    As a member of IIIrd Tyme Out, Steve Dilling is accustomed to having the month of December free each year.

    Steve Dilling launches his own web site

    IIIrd Tyme Out banjo picker Steve Dilling has just notified us that he has his own website, www.sdilling.com.

    Steve Dilling remembers Louise Scruggs

    This post is a contribution from Steve Dilling, banjo player with IIIrd Tyme Out. Steve became acquainted with the Scruggses over the years, and shares a few thoughts about Louise's passing.
