Daniel Kimbro - Story Songs, Murder Ballads and a New Solo Record
My guest this week is Daniel Kimbro. Daniel is the bass player in Jerry Douglas's band and plays with Jerry in Transatlantic Sessions and The Earls of Leicester. He's also part of the trio Harley Kimbro Lewis and joins me this week to chat about his first solo record Carpet in the Kitchen.
This was a fun conversation that touches on story songs, fishing, murder ballads, collaboration and finding a sense of place in music, plus lots of chat about how Carpet in the Kitchen came together and the musicians Daniel chose to accompany him on the record.
Loyston, the first single from the album, is out now. You can listen here.
For more info check out Daniel's website and follow him on Facebook and Instagram for news and updates.
Happy picking,
Matt
