Bawn in the Mash | 9:00 PM
 Bawn in the Mash's first release, 'Welcome to the Atomic
City'(2006),was produced and recorded by the legendary Dan
Knowles.'Welcome to the Atomic City' is a collection of 12 original
compositions that historically interpret and fictitiously describe
events that could have occurred during the last 150 years in Western
Kentucky. This album is regional in concept, and performed with the
traditional acoustic stringband lineup of guitar, bass, mandolin,
violin, and banjo.
Produced by Grammy winning recording engineer Phil Harris,'Hurry
Up and Wait' was recorded in May 2007 at Battle Ridge Studio, located
outside Nashville, Tennessee. The album features 16 original
compositions, with special guest appearances by Donnie Herron (BR5-49,
Bob Dylan Band) Tyler Grant (Drew Emmitt Band, Emmitt Nershi Band,
Tavern Grass),and Chris Black. The musical theme of 'Hurry Up and
Wait' features an acoustic string band, but added elements such as
percussion, trumpet, and electricity create an undefinable sound.
Bawn in the Mash performed 110 shows in 2007, sharing the stage with
Peter Rowan, Tony Rice, Vince Herman, New Riders of the Purple Sage,
John Cowan Band, Larry Keel and Natural Bridge, Jamie Hartford, Justin
Townes Earle, Donnie Herron, Tyler Grant, Chris Henry, Backyard Tire
Fire, Green Sky Bluegrass, 56 Hope Road, Randy Crouch, Cliff Starbuck,
Alabaster Brown, Mark Schatz, Great American Taxi, Wayward Sons, New
Monsoon, Jamie Pigg, Chris Volpe, and many others, ending the year
with two sold out Station Inn peformances with Casey Driessen.
The group also showcased its original material on the Ohio, Tennessee
and Cumberland Rivers, performing aboard the Delta Queen Steamboat and
River Barge Explorer.
In June of 2008, the song 'Little Piece of Paper' was featured on a
Global Rhythm Magazine CD sampler included in some 150,000 magazines
distributed worldwide. In addition, Josh Coffey made his big screen
audio-debut in the Mike Myers movie 'The Love Guru'. If you listen
closely, you can hear his fiddle on 'Foggy Mountain Breakdown' during
the bar fight scene.
Nathan Blake Lynn's solo debut 'Two Catfish and a Bluegill' was
released August 21, 2008, and features 17 original tracks from the
Paducah, Kentucky native. For more information, check out
