The Bluegrass Today Weekly Top 20 Countdown

Mike Kear has posted another podcast for the Bluegrass Today Weekly Top 20 Countdown. This week, Mike is joined as guest co-host by Daniel Grindstaff. Daniel is a high profile banjo player who has released 3 singles in the last year, all of which have gone to number one on our countdown – he’s played with some of the greats of bluegrass – the Osborne Brothers, Jim & Jesse and later Jesse McReynolds, played many times on the Grand Old Opry, he has just released a new album called Heroes & Friends and his biggest claim to fame? He’s a listener to the Bluegrass Today Weekly Top 20 Countdown.

Daniel and Mike do quite a lot of talking on the show about the artists, the songwriters, the songs, and aspects of Daniel’s life and career. Daniel shares a lot of what it’s like being a respected and in-demand musician. Some of it didn’t make it to the podcast because of time considerations, but you can hear all the cut pieces and some of Jerry’s songs on the Patreon Page at http://patreon.com/bttop20

Mike and Daniel spin IN FULL the Top 20 songs played this past week on bluegrass radio stations all over the world and Countdown to a new number 1. The countdown is based on the airplay survey done by BluegrassToday.com last week and published last Friday night.
