 Doing live music right means teaming top-flight musicians with an all-pro recording and post-production team to create a live music release that stands the test of repeated listening. It means (more)  There's always something new here. MERLEFEST 2009 RELEASES STILL COMING  David Bromberg Quartet Hillside set now available Mr. Bromberg's 2006 MerleFest show is still collectible, and we now have a companion download for his fans to enjoy. David and his bandmates were all over the fest: he hosted the Walker Center Midnight Jam, he played solo, with the Quartet and with Angel Band at various stops around the fest. We’ve collected a handful of the best songs from the Hillside set, and added three bonus tracks from the Quartet’s mini-set on the Cabin Stage. We’re enjoying it, and hope you will, too. FIRST SPRING FESTS ANNOUNCE LINEUPS AND TICKET SALES Savannah Music Festival, the three-week smorgasbord, announced an exceptional Americana lineup for 2009. What a great way to shake that winter chill: the town is in bloom during the March 18 – April 10 run. Check in with the fest here. MerleFest promises its customary 4 days x 10 stages of Americana saturation, from April 29 – May 2. We can’t wait. Check the lineup here.   MARTHA SCANLAN TUNE EXCLUSIVELY ON FESTIVALINK Martha Scanlan, a MerleFest fan favorite, is apparently a favorite of novelist Joyce Carol Oates. Ms Oates chose Martha’s song, “Little Bird of Heaven,” as the title of her new book, released this fall. Martha sang this song in her 2009 MerleFest Cabin stage set, so it will be familiar to many of our listeners. This version is a duet recorded in studio with producer and frequent collaborator Dirk Powell.
