If the group in the picture looks a little tired, it's because they are. Valerie Smith & Liberty Pike visited us back in August to record a an episode of our Studio Special series. The session took place just hours after they had returned from a European tour. That show debuts (at last!) this week--Friday at 8 AM ET.Although they may have been a bit ragged because of lack of sleep, jet lag, and "jet head" (a malady Becky Buller describes on the show), the result of their appearance in our studio was outstanding. Valerie and Becky have just released a duet CD titled Here's a Little Song, and the songs they perform are drawn from that. While not hard-core bluegrass, the numbers they did were impressive, the harmonies were fantastic, and the playing was awesome.
I especially enjoyed "Your Goodnight is My Goodbye" and "The River." Also, don't miss "Four Wet Pigs." It's a unique and quirky song which almost became the title song of the new album (actually, "Here's a little song" is a line from "Four Wet Pigs," so I guess that makes it the title song...sort of).
We're excited about this show! Don't miss it.
The Studio Special is a series of live, in-studio performances by some of bluegrass music's hottest bands. For more information about the regular air times, follow this link: Studio Special Air Times.
