If 2020 was the summer where everyone stayed home, 2021 will be the one where people can’t wait to get back out. With Memorial Day Weekend approaching, what are country radio’s programmers seeing as the singles for this season? “I think three are shaping up to be summer soundtracks with Luke Bryan’s ‘Waves’ front and center,” says Audacy Country Format Captain Tim Roberts. “It’s a super-chill track that captures summer and fun beautifully.” Also on Roberts’ summer fun list: Brian Kelley’s “Beach Cowboy,” “which I think is where a lot of brains drift toward daydreaming about summer beach fun,” and Old Dominion’s new “I Was on a Boat That Day.” (Continued on page 4) COUNTRY INSIDER TOP 5: WGAR’s “Wazz & Carletta” Look Back On Morning Show Pairing Ahead Of First Anniversary.

  • Ronald Dean Rice- Audiophile, Musician & Engineer
    Ronald Dean Rice- Audiophile, Musician & Engineer Anyone who thought there were only three Rice Brothers is encouraged to study bluegrass history. Ron Rice grew up playing acoustic bass and performing with his three brothers, Larry, Tony and Wyatt. He’s the third youngest of the four and is now retired from a long career in power generation. While proud of the family’s musical heritage and impact, Rice is a highly talented, yet modest man who has created his own path. Currently living with his wife Terry in Falls Church, VA, his story is an important piece of bluegrass music history. Rice was born in Lynwood, California on February 22, 1955 to Herbert H. and Dorothy L. Rice, with his namesakes being Reagan and Martin. The Rice family resided in the suburbs of Los Angeles until the summer of ’65 then moved considerably along the east coast, as Dad Herb was in construction. Rice started playing the bass at age six with his brothers Larry playing mandolin, Tony playing guitar and Andy Evans playing banjo. This band was known as the Haphazards. Rice notes, “We played a lot of local bluegrass gigs around the Los Angeles area, amusement parks, auditoriums, coffee houses and pizza parlors. Other shows we played in the early sixties were more folk related, back in the Hootenanny days. I remember being back stage with and playing on the same bill as Peter, Paul and Mary, the Kingston Trio, and the Stoneman Family just to mention a few.” Rounder Records-The Rice Brothers 1 (1989) and The Rice Brothers 2 (1994) Rice recalls that the exact origin of the first Rice Brothers project remains something of a mystery.

    Born in California (Nov. 1964) and raised in Arizona, MIKE BUB began his musical journey as a banjo and guitar player. After college, Mike formed the Weary Hearts, with Ron Block (Alison Krauss), Eric Uglum and the late Butch Baldassari (Nashville Mandolin Ensemble). As that band began to fade, Mike turned his concentration from the banjo and guitar and took up the bass to work with The Del McCoury Band. With Del, Mike began a 13 year association with what was to become, and still is, the most awarded band in the history of the International Bluegrass Music Association. Racking up an unprecedented 9 Entertainer of the Year awards, 5 Bass Player of the Year awards as well as various Album, Instrumental and Song of the Year awards, including a Grammy award for the album “The Company We Keep”, which won for Best Bluegrass Album of 2005. A longtime resident of East Nashville, Mike can often be found playing the local clubs with his talented friends and neighbors. Born in Hazelville, WA, SHAD COBB began playing the fiddle at the age of thirteen, and his career started early with his family band that included his father and brothers. In '95, Shad moved to Nashville and began recording with some of Nashville’s top artists, including such acts as Bluegrass legends and Grand Ole Opry members the Osborne Brothers, vocalist Marty Rabon with his band Shenandoah, country music icons like Willie Nelson, singer-songwriters like Steve Earle, and old-time and bluegrass musician/comedian Mike Snyder. Shad’s intricate and soulful style of playing has been compiled over the years from many of his early influences.

    Volume 38, No. 7 © Central Texas Bluegrass Association July 2016 Sunday, July 3: Band Scramble and Garage Sale at Threadgill’s s in previous years, our annual band scramble and musical garage sale will take place at A Threadgill’s North location (6416 North Lamar, Austin) from 2-6 PM on Sunday. We test the boundaries of musical chaos while you watch. Here’s the schedule: 2:00 - 4:30: Buy new/used music-related items (instruments, CDs, DVDs, strings, books, etc.). 3:00: Up to six new, on-the-spot bands are formed from bluegrass/old-time pickers with stage experi- ence who sign up ahead of time. 4:00 - 6:00 Bands perform their tunes. Last year we had a total of 51 pickers in seven dif- ferent bands and raised over $2400. The garage sale portion of the event will be where the buffet is usu- ally set up. We’ll have CDs, T-shirts, magazines, instructional materials, maybe even some instru- ments for sale, and if you want to renew your mem- bership or join the CTBA for the first time, there’ll be some board members at the tables to help you. Last year we had some late arrivals who wanted to sign up even after some of the bands had started practicing. This year, it will help if everyone who wants to scramble can sign up by 3 PM so Eddie can get the bands properly sorted out. Mikaela, Derek, and Logan Pausewang, this year’s CTBA Jim Wiederhold participates in last year’s scholarship winners, will perform a few tunes for us band scramble.

  • GRASS CLIPPINGS Volume 18 Issue 2 June 2013/July 2013
    DESERT BLUEGRASS ASSOCIATION GRASS CLIPPINGS Volume 18 Issue 2 June 2013/July 2013 Editor’s Note: The following article is reprinted with permission from Desert Leaf Magazine (Vol. 27, No. 4, Apr. 2013, pp 41-43.). The article was written by Karen Smith, a local freelance writer. BLUEGRASS IN THE DESERT by Karen Smith When you think about Tucson, what’s the first thing that comes to mind? Believe it or not, for lots of people the answer is bluegrass music! Like our gorgeous sunsets and stately saguaros, bluegrass is a major part of the personality of southern Arizona. How bluegrass became so popular in Tucson is a mystery today. From the oldest bluegrass songs and melodies, we know that early English, Scottish and Irish settlers brought their instruments to America and played the tunes of their native countries. Banjos, fiddles and mandolins were part of their immigration journey. In some cases, washtubs and washboards, and even spoons became part of their sound. The term “bluegrass” specifically refers to the genre of music that evolved from this immigrant music and was championed in the 1940s by American musician Bill Monroe (1911-1996) and his band, Bill Monroe and the Blue Grass Boys, named for Monroe’s home state of Kentucky. In a bluegrass band, traditionally one or more instruments carry the melody, and then each of the instruments, individually, takes a turn playing the melody, with improvisations. These are called breakdowns, and the best of them feature musicians playing faster than water drops dancing on a hot griddle. The breakdown portions of bluegrass songs encourage musicians to develop speed and improvisational skills.
