Folk Life : Upbeat Folk & Bluegrass

[JESquare]

“All music is folk music. I ain't never heard a horse sing a song.”- Louis Armstrong

With my love of most things heavy, people are surprised that I enjoy Folk & Bluegrass. What I love about both is the intangible warmth you feel when you hear a great folk song. It makes me think of autumn and the leaves changing, of wide-open spaces and working in the soil. I also love the energy of folk and bluegrass.  This is a curated playlist of  "UPBEAT" indie folk/bluegrass artist that evoke all of that in me.

How could I get some of the artists I manage on your playlist? I work with Bluegrass/Americana artists

I can't promise to add an artist but if I like it and it fit's the mix I'll add them. You can  post Spotify links here.
