• Sharon Gilchrist's Mandos, Cars & Coffee Vlog Airs Thursday



    NASHVILLE, TENN. ‐ Sharon Gilchrist has announced her new YouTube Vlog series entitled Mandos, Cars & Coffee.

    As the title suggests, the series will consist of Gilchrist pairing up with well known mandolin players to discuss mandolins while sharing coffee and driving around in fine sports cars. Episode #1 featuring Joe K. Walsh is set to launch this Thursday, 7:00 p.m. Pacific Time.

    What's to not like, and what better way than to have Sharon describe it?

      This reminds me of some other show but I can't quite put my finger on it.

      I hadn't realized the relationship between coffee and mandolins. I mean, I pretty much embody that relationship, but I didn't know it was a thing. I didn't know other players know about this thing.

      First, mandolins and beer. Now, mandolins and coffee. Things often come in three, so what's next?

      I really hope the lawyers don't get involved in this, given that JS probably already has enough $$$ to buy every Loar without selling off any of his cars.

      Did she call that song Ashland breakdown? I don’t recall hearing it before but that was spectacular, they each brought some different elements and had their own sound. Very well done! Thank you Sharon and Joe!

      Ashland Breakdown is a fine fiddle tune by Bill Monroe. If you're interested in the earliest versions (as far as I'm aware), you may want to check out the wonderful twin fiddle version (K. Baker & Joe Stuart) on "Weary Traveller" and Kenny Baker's solo version on "Kenny Baker plays Bill Monroe"; both vinyl albums from 1976; both versions also on CD.
