All this month, we're re-running some of the memorable shows we've broadcast so far during this year, and the one featuring Blue Highway was a real highlight for me. This was the 49th show in the series, and it was originally broadcast back in March.Needless to say, this is incredible music from one of the top established bands in bluegrass. On the show they perform several songs from their current album, Through the Window of a Train which, in addition from being one of finest discs they've ever done, received quite a notice Thursday in the International Bluegrass Music Awards Nominations. It received an IBMA nomination for Album of the Year, and the title song is up for Song of the Year. The band is nominated for Vocal Group and Instrumental Group of the Year, and Tim Stafford and Rob Ickes are nominated in the Instrumental categories (Guitar and Dobro Player of the Year, respectively).
You'll enjoy this show. If you can't catch it Friday morning, check out our list of rebroadcast times.

Great band and a great show..Thanks for bringing them into the studio Kyle. That CD gets a lot of rotation on my iPod! So many great songs and arrangements on the album. Sycamore 'Holler' is an awesome tune!
My favorite song is "Where Did The Morning Go", but the whole CD and the Studio Special is fantastic.
