CURRENT EPISODE
Whether you’re a musician or a fan, a writer or an instrumentalist, MUSIC is our common denominator. On INTO THE MUSIC, darn near all we discuss is music. Join us for insightful discussions with interesting guests as we journey INTO THE MUSIC.
It's been three years since The Gentlemen Grifters have been on Into The Music, but it seems that time has served them well. Shaun Swanson (fiddle, vocals) and Mike Goodwin (guitar, vocals) have added Chris LaLonde (mandolin, vocals) and Jake Gilderson-Duwe (bass) to the line up and boy howdy are they making some great music! Their new project, Chest of Lead, is set to drop on August 12 and it's their best batch of songs yet. We discuss the new album, the bonuses they've tossed in, but we focus on four of the brand new songs—one of them a special mix just for this show! These bluegrass boys have never sounded so good, so take a load off and enjoy this show.
