Bill Monroe, the 'Father of Bluegrass Music', was born on September 13, 1911. We celebrated Big Mon's birthday Sunday with a lot of old and new friends playing at The Foundry here in Oak Cliff. Like most bluegrass bands, we play several of Monroe's tunes, including Little Cabin Home on the Hill and I'm Blue I'm Lonesome.
We were also joined on stage with some wonderful youngsters (including mine). Check out our facebook page for some more photos of the kids with us on stage, but here are a few to show you the fun we had.
Also below is a video from our show a few weeks ago, and we have a few more that we will post over the next couple of weeks. We will be at the Foundry again on Sept 27th from 2-5, and we expect great weather and another great show. And we've added a new highlight - Andrew rapping. Come check it out.
