The 9th Annual Bluegrass in The Pavilion concert continues to bring the best Bluegrass musicians to South Florida. In 2013, Audie Blaylock and Redline and Doyle Lawson & Quicksilver will perform great Bluegrass music at this National Historic Landmark. All proceeds from the concert benefit South Arts’ emergency planning for Gulf Coast cultural institutions.
With over 35 albums to their credit, Doyle Lawson & Quicksilver have multiple Grammy, Dove, ICM, IBMA and SPBGMA Award nominations, and are seven-time winners of IBMA's Vocal Group of the Year. Doyle Lawson received two nominations in the 17th Annual Inspirational Country Music (ICM) Awards held in Nashville on October 28, 2011, with fellow nominees including such country giants as George Strait and Carrie Underwood. Lawson also won two IBMA Awards, and was recently heralded by journalist Craig Havighurst as "one of music's lions..."
Of Doyle Lawson & Quicksilver's performance at the August 2011 IBMA Awards Press Conference, which garnered three standing ovations from a sold-out crowd in Nashville, Havighurst wrote: "There was no question who was going to close the show. Doyle Lawson is one of music's lions at this point, and when he came out in perhaps the most beautiful western jacket I've ever seen... he was a holy vision. ... When DLQ, in quartet mode, nailed the final chorus of the a cappella gospel song "He Made It All Right," I swear we were mainlining the holy spirit. You know how the word awesome gets overused and misused? Here's where it applies."
There are many flavors of bluegrass, but none so delicious as what you'll hear on Rural Rhythm Records' I'm Going Back To Old Kentucky by Audie Blaylock and Redline. Absolutely no track disappoints the listener. How can that be? Audie Blaylock, along with Redline members: Patrick McAvinue (fiddle/vocals), Reed Jones (bass/vocals), and Russ Carson (banjo) comprise a wealth of talent alone. Add special guests Del McCoury, Ronnie McCoury, Bobby Osborne, Lou Reid, Carl Jackson, Glen Duncan, and Jason Carter to the mix and you cannot have anything less than a truly outstanding piece of work. These extra-special guest artists add a little of their magic to every single track on this CD.
This Bill Monroe Celebration includes: "I'm Goin' Back To Old Kentucky," "You'll Find Her Name Written There," " My Little Georgia Rose," "Cry Cry Darlin'," "Tall Timber," plus seven more gems. Scott Vestal engineered the work; Audie Blaylock produced it. Bill Monroe would have approved it.
