I have a quick question maybe someone will have the answer to. Does anyone know if Kasey Chambers will be performing with her husband Shane Nicholson? The lineup page discusses their album, but I would really like to know if he will be with her. I really hope so, because their cd Rattlin’ Bones is quite great. Any thoughts? Thanks.
Not sure if he wil be with her but Rattlin’ Bones is one great tune to listen to> I imagine it as one of those tunes that couldd really get crowd going live.
Hope it happens.
Still excited for David Byrne, just saying
I have no plans on ever stopping being excited until I see him and it is over, and I think I will still be excited…What a pleasant surprise 
Ah maybe this is a big left field but…while watching AK on the BBC last week I wondered who in the UK had a comparable voice and was equally as purty.
I dont know if any of you are familiar with Kate Rusby but she stands up pretty well to the comparison.
Shes more English folk than Bluegrass but she is mighty fine.
Go on TBF I dare you to invite her :flower
Karen Casey use to work with Tim O’Brien (in the Crossing tour with what is one of the greatest touring bands ever) and I love her solo work. Her voice is a strong as Kate’s, slightly different style. She’s got a unique look, not sure if’s “purty”. Still if invited I think a duo with her a Tim on a few songs would be in order.
Hot off the press:
Aussie songwriting forces Kasey Chambers and Shane Nicholson have announced they will be performing at Telluride Bluegrass Festival in June in support of their country and bluegrass infused ‘Rattlin’ Bones’ on Sugar Hill Records.
While both artists have successful solo careers in their native Australia and stateside, the husband and wife duo decided to join forces and create a sparsely produced record that highlights the intertwining of two distinct, yet perfectly harmonized voices in a style honoring their musical roots. The result is ‘Rattlin’ Bones’ - a fourteen song LP featuring nine tracks written collaboratively and the remaining tracks written by either Chambers or Nicholson.
:cheers
ME TOO! and this will make everybody else feel the same. we are going to have a serious dance party this summer!
Trust me!!!1
OH WOW!!!
I really hope he does telluride in that configuration!!!
That was awesome
I actually had a chance to catch Kasey Chambers and Shane Nicholson last week when they sat in for The Station Inn Fundraiser, and I must admit, they were quite good. She tore up the banjo! Can’t wait to see them again! :thumbsup Thanks Planet Bluegrass!
Auntie Hope :festivarian2 :green
I’d love to see Marty Stuart play this year. 
Saw Jerry Douglas at Celtic Connections in Glasgow in January and can’t wait to
see the band again, they were brilliant.
I’m really looking forward to hearing the Punch Brothers play Bluegrass. :thumbsup
I just can’t decide who I’m looking forward to the most…
I suppose I have to admit that the house band sends shivers down my spine…but the Punch Brothers playing bluegrass is also a very exciting perspective! 
Oh why choose when you can have them all my sweet silly UK tulip. The best 4 day party on the planet my deer :deer, no need to choose, all of our favs will be there.!!!
I can’t even choose when to visit the ladies room and dinner break for fear of missing out…it’s a bluegrass buffett!!!
ha ha
Speaking of which, I am getting slightly worried that there won’t be enough hours in the day to fit in all the incredible music AND eating AND sleeping: do they do refreshment breaks between sets? :lol I don’t want to find myself halfway accross the festival grounds in the wrong direction looking for a bite to eat and miss out on some insanely good artist/song/Jerry Douglas break !
Ahhh, this might take more planning than I thought!
All the vendors in the actual festival grounds are within earshot of the music, so missing an amazing song in order to eat shouldn’t be a problem. :cheersAnd it’s really easy to bring in a sandwhich or something to munch on and just pull it out of a back pack or something :flower
I’m with you lalagay,
I don’t think I’ll dare move a muscle for fear of missing one millisecond. Just a thought but couldn’t the food and drink vendors travel round the site and feed us in situ, we won’t need to move a muscle!! Hee Hee! :band
A good wide brimmed hat is definitely a must if you dont want to miss something. The sun in telluride can conquer the best of us. I am from FL and thought we had strong sun until I went to Telluride and realized our sun is nothing more than a reading light compared to the sun up there.
Thanks for the heads up Livluvgrow, :thumbsup
Cool
Glad to hear the music vs food side of Telluride is so Bluegrassfan friendly thanks for the advice Hot Sugar!
As for liveluvgrow, thanks for the great tip, I’ve been wondering about sun & temperatures quite alot as I’ve never set foot in the Colorado mountains. I grew up in the south of France, which has severely hot temperatures in the summer, but as you say, when you’re up a mountain it’s a different story…So I’m going to start looking for the perfect hat right now! :cheers
