Time Again Radio Show presents:
Blues & Breakdowns by way of Banjo, Fiddle & Mandolin
Tonight we explore some blues styles that are less thought of in the genre, featuring fine blends of banjo, fiddle and mandolin in the lead. As always with a few surprises and deviations in the mix, we’ll be hearing some great “breakdowns” of the similar make ups as well.
