About Free Range Pickin'

Theres a youthful energy bubbling up in Free Range Pickin and it smartly drives the music of this Minnesota band...a clever name for this band that does indeed range freely over the ever-widening bluegrass landscape. -Bluegrass Unlimited ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Minneapolis group aptly combines a reverence for sounds of the past with modern cheekiness and expert playing. The band's excellent bluegrass chops and sense of humor should appeal to both the Prairie Home Companion and groove-prone crowds. -The Onion

The Crooked Road: Virginias Heritage Music Trail	Jun 3 2007 12:10 AM HELP PUT THE STANLEY BROTHERS IN THE COUNTRY MUSIC HALL OF FAME! Ralph Stanley has received many well-deserved honors in the last few years, yet one honor eludes him. While many of their fellow musicians and singers have been recognized by The Country Music Hall of Fame, THE STANLEY BROTHERS have been sadly -- some say criminally -- overlooked. Jeanie Stanley, youngest daugher of Carter, and fan Kaye Hill have organized an on-going petition to change all that. "The Country Music Hall of Fame recognizes those persons who have made a significant contribution to the country music field," says Hill. "The Stanley Brothers helped lay the foundation for what we have today. Their names deserve to be listed among greats like Bill Monroe and Flatt & Scruggs, who have already be recognized." You can join their efforts in one of the following ways: Contact the CMHoF directly: Mr. Kyle Young, President Country Music Hall of Fame & Museum 222 Fifth Avenue South Nashville TN 37203 Or, if you prefer, you can send a letter to Kaye Hill, who will forward them to the HoF. D. Kaye Hill PO Box 2553 Harrisonsonburg VA 22801 Kay says, "a simple one-line note is all that would be required, but please remember to supply your name and address, and an email address if applicable. I will be collecting all letters and forwarding them to the Country Music Hall of Fame." *"Don't you think it's time?"* <
