Friday Night’s “Best of Pickin” looks at music from the band Cadillac Sky. Formed in Houston in the early 200s, their 2007 debut album” Blind Man walking” is considered one of the greatest progressive bluegrass releases ever recorded. Despite being on an “indefinite hiatus” they retain an incredible loyal fan base. Also, music from the Montana based band “Kitchen Dwellers” who also have an upcoming appearance in the region in July. And, music from Larry Rice. The eldest of the famed Rice Brothers, his father formed the Golden State Boys. Larry Rice would forge his own way in Bluegrass Music with close associations with Chris Hillman, Dickey Betts, JD Crowe, and Herb Pederson. We’ll hear from his final release “Clouds Over Carolina” which was released in 2005 just shortly before his death. Tune in for two hours of solid traditional and progressive Bluegrass, The Best of Pickin can be heard Friday nights at 11 here on 89.5
