Lonesome Road

May 9, 2015

This weekend, we performed at historic Mooneyham Junction in Billings, Missouri. The Mooneyham family began hosting bluegrass and country music shows in this Quonset-style barn in 1962. Musicians from all over the Ozarks performed here for enthusiastic audiences. 

Today, their daughter Sybil Mooneyham Ryan continues the tradition of live music monthly from April through October. For more information about Mooneyham Junction and pictures from the early shows, visit their website.

























 

We stopped by Janet Davis Music recently on our way to the recording studio. While at the store, we played this new Irl Hees song, All the Time, for the JDM staff.  This is one of the tunes that will be on our upcoming CD project titled Home.

September 27, 2014 -- This weekend, we performed at the Heart of the Ozarks Bluegrass Association's (HOBA's) Fall Bluegrass Festival in West Plains, MO.

to create the headwaters of the Spring River.
