Album Notes

Perhaps the late, great Jethro Burns summed it up best when he said, "I don't play guitar when Dowling's in the band. You don't take the game warden fishing." Well known to Nashville bluegrass and acoustic blues pickers, guitarist and singer songwriter Mike Dowling's credentials include time spent as side man or session player for such legendary musicians as jazz violinist Joe Venuti, mandolinist Jethro Burns, and fiddling greats Vassar Clements and Buddy Spicher. Dowling originals have been recorded by a number of bluegrass.
