BILLY STRINGS  "highway prayers"

release date:  27th September 2024

chart stats:  US #22,  US Country #8

format owned:  compact disk

bluegrass dudde
fourth studio album but a first fo me
double cd, 20 tracks
country, outlaw country, americana, folk, bluegrass
lots of fiddles, banjos and other strings
hearing Sturgill Simpson, Charlie Daniels and Steve Earle in places
three banjo pickin' whoop-de-do instrumentals on here, they all pass the grade and fit in well with the rest of the music
a longish album that didnt lose its way or intensity for me
I LOVE THIS ALBUM

fave: video plays out like a movie clip which is cool
