  • Voices in the Hall: Sam Bush (Part 1) Episode Transcript
    VOICES IN THE HALL: SAM BUSH (PART 1) EPISODE TRANSCRIPT PETER COOPER Welcome to Voices in the Hall, presented by the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum. I’m Peter Cooper. Today’s guest is a pioneer of New-grass music, Sam Bush. SAM BUSH When I first started playing, my dad had these fiddle albums. And I loved to listen to them. And then realized that one of the things I liked about them was the sound of the fiddle and the mandolin playing in unison together. And that’s when it occurred to me that I was trying on the mandolin to note it like a fiddle player notes. Then I discovered Bluegrass and the great players like Bill Monroe of course. You can specifically trace Bluegrass music to the origins. That it was started by Bill Monroe after he and his brother had a duet of mandolin and guitar for so many years, the Monroe Brothers. And then when he started his band, we're just fortunate that he was from the state of Kentucky, the Bluegrass State. And that's why they called them The Bluegrass Boys. And lo and behold we got Bluegrass music out of it. PETER COOPER It’s Voices in the Hall, with Sam Bush. “Callin’ Baton Rouge” – New Grass Revival (Best Of / Capitol) PETER COOPER “Callin’ Baton Rouge," by the New Grass Revival. That song was a prime influence on Garth Brooks, who later recorded it. Now, New Grass Revival’s founding member, Sam Bush, is a mandolin revolutionary whose virtuosity and broad- minded approach to music has changed a bunch of things for the better.

  • Hit & Run Bio 2014
    2009 International Bluegrass Music Association "Recorded Event of the Year" Winner (Rebecca Frazier, Daughters of Bluegrass) 2006 First woman on cover of Flatpicking Guitar Magazine (Rebecca Frazier) 2005 International Bluegrass Music Association Showcase Artist First Place, 2005 SPBGMA International Band Championship (Nashville, TN) First Place, 2003 Telluride Bluegrass Festival Band Contest (Telluride, CO) First Place, 2002 Rockygrass Band Contest (Lyons, CO) Rebecca Frazier gained notoriety as the first woman on the cover of Flatpicking Guitar Magazine. With over a decade of touring under her belt, Frazier has returned to the national stage with her flatpicking and songwriting showcase, “When We Fall,” and her new affiliation with Compass Records. In 2013, Rebecca Frazier and Hit & Run have continued to delight audiences across the country with the “handspun yet motor-driven” music that earned Hit & Run their reputation as “one of the tightest groups performing.” They are the only band to win the top triumvirate of major bluegrass band contests at the Telluride, Rockygrass, and SPBGMA Festival Band Championships. Hit & Run formed in late 2001 with the mutual desire to play “authentic yet modern” bluegrass. They quickly launched themselves as a successful touring act out of Colorado, gracing stages of prestigious festivals and venues in 36 states and Canada and eventually migrating to Nashville in 2007 with two studio albums under their belts. Since 2002, Hit & Run has shared stages with the likes of Jimmy Martin, Hot Rize, Rhonda Vincent, Jerry Douglas, Sam Bush, Del McCoury, David Grisman, Ricky Skaggs, Creedence Clearwater Revisited, G. Love & Special Sauce, Galactic, Medeski Martin & Wood, and many other recognized acts bluegrass and popular music.

  • "Star-Watchers Should Keep an Eye on Young Jake Armerding, A
    John Cowan Sixty ( ( Compass 4630 ) ) John Cowan, also known as the Voice of Newgrass, has been singing his heart out for thirty-five years, and his soaring vocals have only improved with time. A true innovator, John applies his powerful pipes to genres from country, bluegrass, and gospel to soul, jazz, and rock-and-roll – often within the space of a single concert. His ability to move fluidly through multiple styles, and carry mesmerized audiences on the journey with him, has set him apart as one of the most loved and admired vocal artists of his generation, not just by fans and critics but among fellow musicians as well. Cowan’s rise to fame began in 1974 when he auditioned as the bassist for the then up-and-coming New Grass Revival. Needless to say, John was offered the gig, but it wasn’t until he’d accepted the job that the shy 22-year-old casually mentioned that he could sing. With his distinctive, rock-tinged tenor vocal and heart-thumping electric bass, John, along with fellow New Grass Revival band mates Sam Bush, Courtney Johnson, and Curtis Burch, and later Bela Fleck and Pat Flynn, introduced a new generation of music fans to an explosive, experimental and ultimately, eponymous brand of bluegrass. The “newgrass” sound spawned popular jam bands such as Leftover Salmon and Yonder Mountain String Band in addition to shaping the sensibilities of country megastars Garth Brooks, the Dixie Chicks, the Zac Brown Band, and Darius Rucker. After New Grass Revival disbanded in 1990, John went on to record a series of critically acclaimed solo albums in addition to laying down guest bass and vocal parts on some 120 recordings for artists including Steve Earle, Bela Fleck, Alison Krauss, and John Prine.

  • Culture, Risk and HIV: the Case of Black African Migrants and Refugees in Christchurch, New Zealand
    Culture, Risk and HIV: The Case of Black African Migrants and Refugees in Christchurch, New Zealand Gerida Joseph Birukila A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Otago, Dunedin, New Zealand July 2012 Abstract Black African migrants and refugees are disproportionately affected by heterosexually acquired HIV in New Zealand. Despite this, there are no data on their HIV related sexual attitudes, beliefs and behaviours. This sequential mixed methods study aimed to address this gap. The study had four phases: community consultation, social mapping, a survey, and focus group discussions. Ten community researchers were nominated during consultation and received training in research methods. The community researchers used social mapping techniques to identify social venues and events (such as churches, mosques, soccer games, drums of Africa, Miss Africa Christchurch, baby showers, hair salons, universities, colleges and formal and informal community organisations) from which to recruit participants for the survey phase. The questionnaire from the Mayisha I study in the UK was adapted for use in this study. The survey used a self-administered questionnaire on HIV-related sexual behaviours, attitudes and practices. A sub-sample of survey participants was purposively selected and invited to attend the focus group discussions to explore the issues identified in the survey findings in more depth. In total, 250 participants completed the survey questionnaire and five focus groups were conducted. Participants came from 13 different countries in Africa (Tanzania, Kenya, Ghana, Nigeria, Somalia, Ethiopia, Eritrea, Sudan, South Africa, Zimbabwe, Zambia, Malawi and Botswana). Risk factors identified in this study included low condom use, low HIV risk perception, having more than one sexual partner (including concurrently) and previous sexually transmitted disease (STD) diagnosis.
