Got 'Grass?
More than picks and strings, we explore the musical stories, the hopes and dreams, and some of the hard times, of life as a bluegrass star. You'll find them Insightful, often funny, sometimes discouraged, in other words, human! Hosted by Chris Wuerth from GuitartownCT concerts in Hamden, CT.
Got 'Grass?
Vickie Vaughn
Vickie Vaughn plays bass for the multi-awarded bluegrass band Della Mae. They will be touring soon, performing a tribute to Hazel Dickens. Vickie is an in-demand studio musician in Nashville, and fronts The Vickie Vaughn Band. Her second album gets released in November. She was classically trained as a singer, and sings lead in her band. She also toured and sang harmony for years with country music star Patty Loveless.
Vickie is an eloquent voice for women in bluegrass and real country music. She has lots to say about the role of the bass, about her bass hero Missy Raines, her musical friends in Nashville, and her hope to someday get a pet cat. One of the most delightful and funny interviews I've ever done!
