Billy wins "Entertainer of the Year" for the second year in a row. 

Cody Kilby from The Traveling McCoury's sat in with the Dusters in Flagstaff in Sept with Falco home for his son's health issues. Helluva picker.

Sierra just rules. What a pickin' sweetheart.  And Justin Moses (dobro award) is her husband. Multi-instrumentalist. Banjo, guitar, fiddle, dobro...

Some new blood. 

What about Rowns?

 

Wait. Video?

Damn dude, in a normal world, you and I should be sharing some goodies in front of the Banjo Stage today. Hopefully next year. 

P.S. - Happy Birthday Gillian Welch, today! Always dug 'em at HSBF.
