The Bluegrass Situation [ BGS ]
United States
Приєднався 3 жов 2011
BGS is your hub for all things roots.
What began as a blog for like-minded Los Angelenos pining for bluegrass in Southern California has morphed and grown over the greater part of a decade to become a national and international standard-bearer for all of the things we love about bluegrass within every branch and offshoot of the roots music family tree - from vibey pop-folk to ravishing alt-country; plus blues, singer/songwriter, Americana, old-time, and everything else above, below, and in-between.
From Nashville to London to Los Angeles, BGS brings modern, self-aware, and progressive sensibilities to the editorial, curatorial, and marketing needs of the world’s American roots music communities.
It’s really quite simple: BGS is Roots Culture Redefined.

A multi-instrumentalist adept in many styles and traditions - he even plays sarod, a Hindustani instrument - Stecher’s entire career is a fascinating case study in the interconnectedness of American folk music styl...

Golly Tim, I only seen and enjoyed this Masterpiece for the first time, and it's my favorite. But, that happens with every song of yours I hear.
This isn't on spotify, I'm gonna have to actually use UA-cam music. This song is great.
This blew me away. On my 4th listen, what a tune! Cant wait to check out your other stuff 🤙
Great band, they will get big
Well done. Thanks. 🎉
Those lips are a problem.
Yeah good stuff! 🙌🙌 don’t care what some say bluegrass cello is dope! Dr. Joy is a beast of a musician!
Beautiful! Bravo Big Richard! 👏👏👏
*DJ Khaled voice* ANOTHA ONE
THIS BAND RULES I CAN'T WAIT FOR THE ALBUM AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH
Right? Wild to think they don’t have a studio album out and still out here crushing it.
Really nice!
❤Bubby...
These girls rock!!!
Great stuff girls,love it 🥰
Love these tony rice video's.
Nice, that credence flair! Alls ya needs now is a whistler, ya hear! . I be kind enough to oblige. Just ask. I am one of the best the world has ever heard.
Lost her come back daisy
Something captivating about this mix. I’ve already listened to it four times. Great job!
This is a great video man. Thanks for this.
might be the best version of this song
Excellent! Love me some Jason Carter on vocals! Would love to see the whole song 🎵
I wanna go on a cruise with the Rainbow Girls!
Wonderful tune, fine pickin'.
Absolutely beyond measure. 💯
I LOVE THIS! OHHHHH
Toller Song von rossane casch sowieso tolle Sängerin gefällt mir
I can listen to A.J. all day long. So smooth..
This is a truly lovely performance. The voices, of course, are lovely. And the sublime instrumental accompaniment. As an audio engineer, however, I'm curious where the vocal mics are. I see the instrument mics, but they're too close to the instruments to also be the vocal mics. The balance between vocals and instruments in this recording would not be so superb if the vocals were being picked up only by the instrument mics. Can anybody explain this to me?
Tom, Thanks for doing this interview with Flux.
To those who don't know or have never met Tim, he's just like you'd want him to be. The coolest guy, very funny, and a humble genius. Tim=The coolest.
❤❤❤❤😂 1:54 1:57
Her voice is beautiful even when she is just speaking. How does she DO that??? Ha ha.
Sam Bush=The greatest!
this is such a great tune. i love how jason sings the song. he means every word and gets the story across. plus his baritone voice is smoother than Guinness
That was killer.
This is amazing! How did you fellas have time to do this?
Headed to the TX river for the weekend. Wish I could hear you guys live soon!
On fire! Love this tune!
Excellent! Could listen to these gents all day and then some!
Nice!!
He reminds me of John Sebastian of the Lovin Spoonful who also had a solo career...
Love your review!
Wow, This is Amazing, Thanks for the Tunes 🎸🎸
It’s crazy, I’ve wrote hundreds of songs like these(not as good) and was constantly told no one wants to pay to hear someone just jam on their acoustic and pretty much gave up music and now it’s becoming alot more popular. I’m definitely not saying I could’ve made a living like these guys just kind of crazy how the world works sometimes
I think your first mistake was thinking it had to be profitable for it to be worthwhile. Music (and all art) is, first and foremost, a means of self expression; it’s for your soul and sanity. The monetization of art is just a happy bonus for those who do get to make a living off of it. More than all that, though, our art attracts other like minded people and benefits us all socially as well. 5 true friends bonding sincerely over shared forms of expression is worth more than thousands of fickle fans and followers who have to be pandered to. Anyway, it’s still not too late to do something with your music. Don’t make my oft repeated mistake of fretting over what’s lost so much that you forget to make the most out of what you have left. The beauty and benefits of music are still there waiting for you
Yeehaw! 🤠
Beautiful
I've known this since Joan Baez's album came out some 60 odd years ago. I love this but my ear wants it to be 20% faster.
I was this many years old when I found out there were two AJ Lees.
I sincerely hope these two girls are lovers. It's an old song, but the degree of integration here is amazing. Timing, tone, everything is just perfect. Surely you've got to know each other to play this well?.
RayW Hubbard love what he writes and plays I believe he has devine delivery badass to the bone
