Bluegrass Jam Along Interviews

De: Matt Hutchinson
  • Resumen

  • The podcast for anyone and everyone who plays bluegrass. We chat to key figures from the world of bluegrass - pickers, singers, writers, teachers and instrument builders.

    We also have a separate podcast (not on Spotify) where we feature a different fiddle tune every week and give you three brand new backing tracks: Backup 4 times through (you play the tune or improvise breaks), Tune 4 times through (you play backup) and ‘Jam Along’ (4 complete run throughs, alternating backup and tune).

    For more info and chord charts, visit https://bluegrassjamalong.com.

  • Jason Carter on his 33 Years With the Del McCoury Band
    May 7 2025

    My guest on the podcast this week is six time IBMA Fiddle Player of the Year Jason Carter.


    Jason recently ended his 33 year run with the Del McCoury Band and we talk about that extraordinary journey, from the fascinating story about how he got the job in the first place, to the decision to move on and what comes next. We also talk about the huge changes bluegrass has gone through in those 33 years, how Del's career grew alongside that, recording The Mountain with Steve Earle and Jason's recent solo album, plus his project with Michael Cleveland.


    This was a wonderful conversation - I hope you enjoy it.

    Enjoy!

  • Bitesize - Wyatt Rice on recording Church Street Blues with Tony Rice
    Apr 23 2025

    This Bitesize episode features a conversation I had with Wyatt Rice for a set of episodes in 2023 to celebrate the 40th anniversary of Tony Rice's 'Church Street Blues' album.


    Wyatt talks about his experience of playing on the sessions aged just 17, hanging out with Tony, the first time he saw an Ovation guitar at Tony's house and the track from 'Church Street Blues' he ended up playing backup on, even though he'd never played it before the tape started running.


    It was a really special interview to get to be a part of - I hoe you enjoy it.


    Here are the links to the full Church Street Blues episodes:


    - Part 1 - (inc. Tim Stafford, Wyatt, Alison Krauss, Bryan Sutton and Chris Eldridge


    - Part 2 - (inc. Bob Minner, Jake Eddy, Justin Moses and Scott Nygaard)


    - Wyatt (extended interview)


    Happy picking,
