The Lovell Sisters, Bearfoot, and Sierra Hull and Highway 111 do Darlin' Corrie at the Merlefest Next Generation Super Jam. Saturday morining at Merlefest.
I'm all for new sounds in Bluegrass, but I think their "ambition" is leading them someplace else.
Seen them lately? I've seen the Lovells 4 times in the past 3 years - most recently in January.
I respect them for wanting to be the REM of Bluegrass, but,.....those perfect 3 part harmonies are now MIA. Replaced by "bluesy" dual lead vocals and bad covers of Rock songs.They are also touring w/ non Bluegrass groups now. I'm just disappointed. No big deal:-(
yeah, sierra is better, especcially vocally. but i like the lovells and im the kind who'll listen to bluegrass from grandpa jones and the inventor himself on up to lovin cherryolmes and the new stuff.
I thought Sierra was a notch better, but then again I'm SO over the Lovell Sisters and their whole Indie/Pop/ Bluegrass thing. Or whatever they're calling it.
hmm, i didnt know that, in that case im sure i'd agree with you.
