The Hillbilly Gypsies

Yeah, I know it's a real hokie piece of album art! Begs the question 'What the hell is this?' Some left-over hippie dope-induced Jug Band from the 60's? One of those wannabee bluegrass groups you see at a California or Colorado Pseudo Bluegrass Festival? Nah, this is the real-deal. Hailing from Morgantown, West Virginia, the Hillbilly Gypsies recently brought down the house at the Old Lucketts Schoolhouse Winter performance series along with Linda Lay and Springfield Exit. Both groups were outstanding. I think Linda has one of the best voices in the business. Buy this CD - better yet, experience the Hillbilly Gypsies in a live performance. They'll be appearing at a number of events here locally in 2010.
