Rebel Records has released a single, Bluefield West Virginia Blues, from their upcoming album by Big Country Bluegrass. It's a new song from Tom T. & Dixie Hall and Troy Engle, telling of a time when Tom T. encountered an exceptional banjo player who he didn't have a chance to meet. It's one of two songs by the Halls that will be included on Country Livin', due June 9 from this popular Virginia band. Like so many artists in bluegrass, Big Country Bluegrass had a long relationship with Miss Dixie Hall, and had recorded many of her songs during their career before she passed away earlier this year. Founding member and mandolinist Tommy Sells shared a sentiment from the group InchMiss Dixie was a dear friend who loved and supported our music so much. Her wonderful contributions, not only to us but to bluegrass music as a whole, were beyond measure.Inch Their arrangement is driven by Lynwood Lunsford's tasty D-tuning banjo, and concludes with his version of Green Mountain Hop, Don Reno's classic rendering of Black Mountain Rag in D. Country Livin' - Big Country BluegrassCountry Livin' isn't scheduled to hit until June, but the single is available for sale now in iTunes, and the band is accepting album orders online.
