Sam Bush - Circles Around Me

Circles Around Me, Sam Bush's eighth solo album and sixth with Sugar Hill, will be released October 20. The album is an aurally inspiring mix of bluegrass favorites and complementary new songs. I don't know why, but it felt right at this moment in my life to go back and revisit some things that I've loved all my life, which is bluegrass and, unapologetically, newgrass, says Bush. After all these years of experimenting-and there's experimentation on this record too-I've come full circle.Produced by three-time Gtrammy winner Bush, the 14-song set includes appearances by Del McCoury, Edgar Meyer, Jerry Douglas and, thanks to the discovery of an old demo, New Grass Revival co-founder Courtney Johnson (posthumously). The album also employs the phenomenal talent of Bush's band: Scott Vestal, Stephen Mougin, Byron House and Chris Brown.Circles Around Me marks Sam Bush's much anticipated return to his bluegrass roots and patented newgrass innovations. Americana Music Association's Lifetime Achievement Award for Instrumentalist.
