Good internet reads

Retired English teacher, Ted writes a thoughtful blog primarily about bluegrass.  He and his wife Irene travel the East Coast, have become fast friends with well known artists and advocates in bluegrass.
Bruce is even pictured in the beginning of his 2011 retrospective

Chris Jones, from Chris Jones and the Night Drivers as well as a singer, guitar player and songwriter, is also DJ on Sirius XM (why they decided to keep both names for the combined satellite radio I'll never know).  AND he's also really funny.  I've recently been reading his posts full of suggestions for new bands on Bluegrass Today Chris' page.

Chris Pandolfi who delivered the keynote address at IBMA has a popular blog, Chris is coming from the progressive side of bluegrass; rooted in bluegrass but extending out to larger younger audiences with his band the Stringdusters.

The Murphy Method blog features the whole family's take on various bluegrass events, occasions, happenings.  Our friend Casey is a regular here and it's always entertaining.

These are all folks who care deeply about bluegrass, have a good sense of humor and write thoughtfully about the state of our music.  Thanks for keeping us informed and amused!
