Saturday Matinee – Wimberley Bluegrass Band, The Sleepy Man Banjo Boys & David Ford

The Wimberley Bluegrass Band
Parkfield Bluegrass Festival 5 May 2011.

The Wimberley Bluegrass Band is comprised entirely of four teenage siblings! Danielle plays the mandolin, James is a Deering endorsed artist and plays banjo, Mark, his twin, is a Black Diamond Strings endorsed artist and plays guitar, and Michael plays the fiddle. They all sing with Michael usually taking the lead and the others singing that tight harmony unique to family groups.

The Sleepy Man Banjo Boys.

“Brothers Jonny, Robbie and Tommy Mizzone are The Sleepy Man Banjo Boys, a trio of virtuoso bluegrass musicians who play with dazzling vivacity.
Did we mention they’re all under 16?”

David Ford at Sun Studios. Jump to 1:15 for one man awesome rock.

All three of these vids made me smile. Have a great weekend, and we’ll see you back here tomorrow.

Everyone will laugh and call you a horse’s ass, and there’s absolutely nothing you can do about it.

Due to the holiday and a squirrelly workweek, we completely screwed up the posting schedule. We apologize for the inconvenience, and we shall resume our regularly scheduled posting momentarily.

Saturday Matinee – Billy Preston, Little Milton w/ Jimmie Vaughan, Popa Chubby

Billy Preston “Outta Space” 1973.

No info on that vid, except that Jimmie Vaughan introduced Little Milton and gave him the floor to play “That’s What Love Will Make You Do.”

Popa Chubby live at the Chesterfield Cafe (2006?) with his heavily-modified version of Chick Willis’  “Stoop Down Baby.”

From the Utoobage Comments:
“This guy rocks. I played at an open mic a few nights ago and right after I went off he walked in. He ended up doing a set with the house band for the next 3 hours, he used my gear! I hope some of his mojo rubbed off on my amp. He has one sick tone, I didn’t think my amp could sound as good as he did haha.”

Sorry for the late post, been kinda busy in meatworld. Have a great weekend.
