Josh Williams goes above and beyond

Event Details

If you’ve ever wondered how Josh Williams has won the hearts of so many bluegrass fans, this video from last weekend’s Doyle Lawson Bluegras Festival in Denton, NC may help you understand.

Saturday evening, after Josh closed out the show and the sound crew had already shut down the audio system, the crowd was insistent on hearing some more music – so Josh and his fine band strode to the front edge of the stage and delivered a flawless presentation of the Jimmy Martin classic, Mary Ann.

 

That’s Nick Keen on mandolin, Randy Barnes on bass and Jason McKendree on banjo. Well done, boys!
