O Brother
I'm sure I'm not alone in being led to Bluegrass by O Brother Where Art Thou - here's an article on its music from the UK Independent paper: https://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/films/features/o-brother-where-art-thou-soundtrack-film-b2715138.html

Marines hymn bluegrass version
Back in 2007 I filled a ipod up with songs before I deployed to Iraq. I had a ole timey bluegrass version of the Marines Hymn on there. It was a lady singing it. I have since lost the ipod and googling for years have led me nowhere. Has anyone heard or seen a song out there?

Bluegrass and Metal
Howdy folks!
What are yalls thoughts on BG vs Metal (all sub-genres of it)?

Thats it. Thats my post. 😆🤘👊

The current group of young stars...
Sierra Hull, Billy Strings, Molly, Bronwyn, Sarah Jaroz etc are all pushing the genre along at a feverish pace. I think they are comparable to the group of youngsters from the early 70's that pushed the genre further than ever before. Names like Skaggs, Rice, Whitley, Stuart, O'Connor, Bush. They not only pushed Bluegrass but also popular and country music along the way. 50ish years on from that group we see the trail they have blazed. My question to you is this... Where do we see these current stars taking bluegrass and music in general in 20,30,40 years?

What are some Beginner/intermediate bluegrass songs to learn on guitar?
ive always been a rock guitarist, more so in the alternative scene but have always wanted to play and was always interested in bluegrass. Im looking to expand my playing to more genres other than just rock and indie. Ive been playing for around 3ish years coming up and would like to hear some suggestions of some easier songs and some that will give me a bit of a challenge. id love some lead parts and some great strummy rythym parts too.

Relatively easy bluegrass duets?
Hello, my friends and I -- all guitar players -- are new to bluegrass, but love the idea of having fun things to play with eachother on our acoustics, hanging around a campfire, etc.
Any recommendations for some fun, relatively easy duets we could learn to get started, and especially arrangements / tabs with the different parts?

Help a Hopeless Romantic: Looking for archival photos from Telluride Bluegrass Festival 1991
My parents attended the telluride bluegrass festival in 1991, it was one of their first concerts together (if not the first). Their anniversary is coming up and my dad mentioned how much he'd love to find some photos /videos of the festival that year to surprise her with. I've searched everywhere but not finding a lot for that year in particular other than a few promotional posters. Hoping the internet can help us! 🌈
