• #164 - "All God's Children" by East Nash Grass, feat. Cory Walker

  www.patreon.com/banjopodcast   It's a Freshly Picked episode, featuring a banjo-centric deep dive into the brand new album from East Nash Grass, titled "All God's Children" - featuring an interview with intrepid banjoist Cory Walker! ENG is one of those bands that seems almost impossible NOT to like: they have that elusive knack for sounding both classic and traditional and fresh and new all at the same time! They are each true masters of their instruments, and the band features multiple singers and songwriters to keep listeners on their toes. They deliver all of this with their trademark sense of humor and deep respect for bluegrass and country music.
