The Travelin’ McCourys
Label: McCoury Music
Reviewed By: Kim Walter, August 2019

This album is the evolution of decades of playing bluegrass music for the sons of Del McCoury, one of the most successful and influential bluegrass musicians alive. The band, two McCoury brothers (Ronnie and Rob) and Jason Carter, Alan Bastram, and Cody Kilby, is the only group where each member has at least one international bluegrass music association award for their particular instrument. My faves were 4, 5, 6 and 10.

Slow - Nice BG cover of “Let her Go”
Med -BG Cover of Waylon Jennings
Slow/Med - Fun song, written by Nick Lowe, an amen
*Med - Original song by bassist, alan Bertram, nice fingerpicking tune
*Slow/Med - mellow Mountain tune
*Med - Instrumental with adroit picking

*Med - Nice smooth BG country rock
Med - Nice bluesy cover of jerry Garcia
**Slow - Has old-timey feel
Fast - BG rockabilly
Med - Groovy traveling song
Slow/Med - Nice mellow song with lots of trills
