Join Ray Davis every weekday for three great hours of traditional bluegrass. Ray brings you some of the best bluegrass around, from prison songs and “plum pitiful” tunes to the great train rides – and train wrecks – of bluegrass music. You’ll also hear music from Ray’s famous “basement tapes,” recordings he’s made of some of the top Bluegrass artists in the business. And at the end of every hour, Ray makes it “Hymntime” with a selection of gospel bluegrass songs. Ray can also be heard on Sunday afternoons following Stained Glass Bluegrass.
