In 1927 people came down from the mountains to Bristol, Tennessee to record their mountain music. They ended up making history. In 2014, we’re making history again. Rusty Morrell is the mastermind behind this project, and in conjunction with Carl Jackson, is producing the album “Orthophonic Joy – The Bristol Sessions Revisited”.
Set to be released in Spring 2015, “Orthophonic Joy: The 1927 Bristol Sessions Revisited,” features entertainment legend Dolly Parton, as well as country music stars Vince Gill, Emmylou Harris, Marty Stuart, Steve Martin and the Steep Canyon Rangers and Ashley Monroe. The recording project includes 16 of the original songs from the Bristol Sessions.
