Listen "Sierra Hull Returns"
Episode Synopsis
My guest this week is Sierra Hull.Since I spoke to Sierra for the podcast back in January 2023 she's been ridiculously busy touring and recording. We chat about the extended tour she's been on for Bela Fleck's My Bluegrass Heart (which she describes as one of the highlights of her musical life), her current and ongoing tour with her own band (which has been chaotic to say the least!) and why she chose to have a drummer in her band, even though she confesses she's not generally a fan of drums in bluegrass.We talk about the wonderful band she's assembled and what they've been up to in the studio, including recording a new album (due in the first quarter of 2025), two great covers (Tears For Fears' Mad World and The Grateful Dead's Black Muddy River), not one but two holiday songs (the first of which,The First Snowfall, is out this week) and her Freshgrass Concerto commission.Lots to look forward to if (like me) you're a Sierra Hull fan!This conversation was a lot of fun - I hope you enjoy it!For info and tour dates head to Sierra's website sierrahull.comFor regular updates follow Sierra on Facebook and InstagramIf you missed it, check out my previous interview with Sierra.Happy picking,Matt Hosted on Acast.
