Friday at Pickin' in Parsons

Today was a great day at Parsons, great weather and great bluegrass, especially if you prefer the very traditional style.

Tomorrow's show will be more diverse, with Karl Shifflet and Dave Evans holding up the traditional side and Blue Moo n Rising and Nothin' Fancy with a more contemporary sound. West Virginia's own Hillbilly Gypsies present their own blend of traditional and contemporary.

There were two pleasant surprises at Friday's show.





Kevin Prater, who was the very good mandolin player with James King
is now playing banjo with the Bluegrass Brothers.
He is also a very competent on the banjo.



Outstanding song writer and lead singer Aubry Hold is now officially part of his son's band
Tony Holt and the Wildwood Valley Boys
