Treatful

Because I know how you like it: Barnstar covering the Traveling Wilburys' "Handle With Care," downloadable at Mark Erelli's website. Barnstar is the "fake" band of Zack Hickman's with varying members, recently including the Old Train himself (Taylor Armerding), Charlie Rose, and Mark Erelli. This clip is from Barnstar's show in March at the illustrious Cantab Lounge. Of course I was in attendance, along with a couple other bluegrass fans.

I swear I can hear Amanda laughing when Hickman first croons on this track.

If you're feeling just slightly sketchy you can rip all the past songs of the month from Erelli's parent directory. They were free before so there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with this, right? (I plan on buying a couple CDs, Mark, I swear!) A lot of great tunes in there, including some from past Covers Nights at Club Passim.

Buy This Amazing Music Right Now

Taylor Armerding's premiere solo album, Head That Way, for sale over at jakearmerding.com. I'm blasting "Northern Rail" right now and my life is pretty much complete.

Bluegrass!

"I'm gonna riiiiide that northern rail...."

And does it get any better than Jake & Taylor singing "Working on a Building?" No, no it does not.
