    SARA WATKINS TO RELEASE UNDER THE PEPPER TREE MARCH 26th VIA NEW ​ ​ WEST RECORDS REUNITES HER NICKEL CREEK & I’M WITH HER BANDMATES & FEATURES GUEST APPEARANCES BY TAYLOR GOLDSMITH OF DAWES, DAVID GARZA, AND WATKINS’ NOW THREE-YEAR-OLD DAUGHTER Sara Watkins of the Grammy-winning groups Nickel Creek and I’m With Her, as well as The Watkins Family Hour will release Under the Pepper Tree on March 26th via New West Records. ​ The 15-song set was produced by Tyler Chester (Sara Bareilles, Margaret Glaspy) and is the follow up to her critically acclaimed 2016 solo album Young In All The Wrong Ways. Created ​ ​ with families in mind, the personal project encompasses songs Sara embraced as a child herself and brings storytelling, solace, and encouragement to the listener, no matter the age. In addition to two stunning original songs, the album includes Sara’s renditions of “Pure Imagination” from the 1971 film Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory, The Beatles’ “Good Night,” “Moon River” ​ ​ (originally sung by Audrey Hepburn in the 1961 film Breakfast at Tiffany’s), and more. Under ​ ​ ​ the Pepper Tree also reunites Sara’s Nickel Creek bandmates Chris Thile and her brother Sean on “Blue Shadows on the Trail” (from the 1986 comedy The Three Amigos), Sara’s I’m With Her ​ ​ bandmates Sarah Jarosz & Aoife O’Donovan on “Tumbling Tumbleweeds” (originally performed by Roy Rogers & Sons of the Pioneers), Taylor Goldsmith of Dawes on Harry Nilsson’s “Blanket for a Sail,” David Garza on Roy Orbison’s “Beautiful Dreamer,” and Sara’s now three-year old daughter on her immensely sweet rendition of The Sound of Music’s “Edelweiss.” ​ ​ Sara admits that she initially felt conflicted about making a children’s record until she realized that perhaps this album could impact a young listener in the same manner as the music from her own childhood affected her.

  • Download a Brief History of the San Diego Bluegrass Society
    A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE SAN DIEGO BLUEGRASS SOCIETY By Dwight Worden May 13, 2014 THE EARLY YEARS The late 1960s and early 70s were a time of change in America. Students were active, an unpopular war was underway, and many young Americans were breaking with the traditions of their parents. It was the season of long hair and love. The new generation was experimenting with, among other things, music. Amidst the excitement and turmoil of the times many, both young and old, were searching for authenticity and solid values in music and lifestyles. The folk boom of the 1950's and early 60's had awakened many to the raw authenticity of acoustic, folk, and bluegrass music. It was during this time period that groups like the Scottsville Squirrel Barkers were making a bluegrass mark in San Diego. Two local members of that band went on to national rock and roll stardom, Chris Hillman (mandolin) who became a founding member of the Byrds (bass), and Bernie Leadon (guitar)who joined the Eagles (guitar). Kenny Wertz of the “Barkers” (banjo) went on to bluegrass fame in Country Gazette (guitar) and with the Flying Burrito Brothers. There were jam sessions at the Blue Guitar music store, then located in Old Town (now on Mission Gorge Road). Venues like the Heritage in Mission Beach and the Candy Company brought acts like Vern and Ray, the Dillards, and others to town. “Cactus Jim” Soldi of Valley Music in El Cajon was the first to bring Bill Monroe to town at the Bostonia Ballroom in El Cajon.

  • Sarah Jarosz Undercurrent
    Sarah Jarosz Undercurrent "I really like that word," Sarah Jarosz says of the title of Undercurrent, her fourth Sugar Hill album. "If you look up the definition, it's 'an underlying feeling or influence' or 'a flow of water moving below the surface.' To me, that really encompasses the feeling behind this record." That evocative imagery is appropriate for Undercurrent, whose 11 original songs seem to reveal new lyrical depth and sonic nuance with every listen. A gifted multi-instrumentalist, a singularly expressive vocalist and a songwriter of rare insight, Sarah Jarosz has been described by The New York Times as "one of acoustic music's most promising young talents: a singer-songwriter and mandolin and banjo prodigy with the taste and poise to strike that rare balance of commercial and critical success." Although it's her fourth album, Undercurrent is a milestone for Jarosz in more ways than one. It's her first release since graduating with honors from the New England Conservatory of Music, and her first since relocating to New York City. "This is the first record I've made since being out on my own and experiencing a lot of changes, and I think that that's reflected in the songs," Jarosz explains. "It's also the first record I've ever made that feels to me like a complete thought, with a beginning, a middle and an ending. It's also the first time I've made an album that doesn't have any covers on it. I wanted it to feel like the rollercoaster ride that is life, so I put a lot of thought into sequencing the songs.

  • NFL Roster Cuts –
    7 bekannte NFL Spieler, die in den nächsten Tagen ihren Job verlieren könnten In der nächsten Woche wird es einen Massenexodus von Spielern geben, da die NFL Teams ihren Roster auf 53 Spieler reduzieren müssen. Die Teams müssen ihr Personal bis Dienstag auf 85 Spieler reduzieren, bevor sie ihren Roster am 31. August endgültig festlegen. In einem knallharten Geschäft wie der NFL spielen frühere Leistungen keine Rolle, so dass zahlreiche bewährte Spieler Gefahr laufen, entlassen zu werden. 7 Spieler, die entlassen werden könnten: Devonta Freeman, RB, Saints Freeman hat seine besten Jahre offensichtlich schon lange hinter sich, aber die Saints haben sich in dieser Saison für ihn entschieden, obwohl sie bereits Alvin Kamara und Latavius Murray in ihren Reihen haben. Nun sieht es so aus, als ob Freemans Aufenthalt in New Orleans nur kurz sein wird. Die Leistungen des 29-Jährigen in der Preseason haben seinen Abwärtstrend nur fortgesetzt. Sechs Carries für sechs Yards in Spiel 1 sind einfach zu wenig. Außerdem hat Running Back Tony Jones Jr. mit 82 Yards bei sieben Versuchen in der vergangenen Woche eine starke Leistung gezeigt. Ryan Griffin, QB, Buccaneers Griffin ist seit 2015 in Tampa Bay zu Hause. Allerdings könnte er bald auf der Suche nach einem neuen Team sein. Der 31-Jährige wäre wahrscheinlich weiterhin als dritter Quarterback der Buccaneers geblieben, wenn diese nicht in der zweiten Runde den Quarterback Kyle Trask aus Florida verpflichtet hätten. Da hinter Tom Brady und Blaine Gabbert ein junger Kandidat in den Startlöchern steht, gibt es keinen Platz mehr für Griffin. Sony Michel, RB, Patriots Michel hat nach drei Jahren in der Liga mehr als genug Erfahrung.

  • Sean Watkins Co-Founded Nickel Creek When He Was Just 12 Years
    Sean Watkins co-founded Nickel Creek when he was just 12 years old, kickstarting a career that's taken him from the stage of the Grammy Awards to the top of the bluegrass charts. Along the way, he's become an award-winning guitarist, a singer/songwriter and a member of several different bands, not to mention one of the early pioneers of a genre now known across the world as Americana. Now, after 25 years of being either a band member of sideman, Watkins is throwing his full weight behind a new solo album, All I Do Is Lie. "It's a culmination of the past 10 years," he says of the record. "It was borne out of a drive to step out of supportive roles in bands. I do like backing up other artists, but in the last couple of years, I've started owning my own personality as a musician. I've had the urge to put my name on something and step out of the supporting role." Folk fans are already familiar with Nickel Creek's story. Formed decades ago as a bluegrass trio, the group expanding its sound — and its popularity — with albums like the Grammy- winning This Side, which became a crossover hit on the bluegrass, country and pop charts in 2002. Three years later, when Nickel Creek decided to take an open-ended break from the stu- dio, Watkins found himself with more time to focus on other projects. He made the most of it, forming an indie-folk duo called Fiction Family with Switchfoot's frontman, Jon Foreman, and launching a monthly variety show called the Watkins Family Hour with his sister.
