“While most year-end reviews are published in December, I like to spend the holidays reminiscing about the year that’s coming to a close….Thus, the first column of of 2025 is a survey of what moved me in 2024….

Billboard debut at #4 on the Bluegrass Chart for Rebecca Frazier’s new album Boarding Windows in Paradise, out now via Compass Records!

I grew up in Virginia, and I’m well acquainted with the fierce power of disruptive weather systems and their restorative beauty. I sought to capture this juxtaposition metaphorically, echoing many changes I’ve experienced in my life during this past decade.

GRAMMY-winning producer and Virginian Bill Wolf (Tony Rice, Grateful Dead) has thrown himself into this project with admirable heart and soul, and Friday the 13th is his “lucky day.” That’s aptly fitting for this project, which is thematically based on our symbiotic relationships with nature and with each other. BOARDING WINDOWS IN PARADISE has been a paradigm shift for me as a person and musician, and I am beyond thrilled to share it with you. Featuring the talents of Béla Fleck, Sam Bush, Stuart Duncan, Barry Bales, Josh Swift, Byron House, Ron Block, Scott Vestal, Shelby Means, Virginia band Love Canon, and more. Thank you for listening and sharing HERE!

Join Rebecca, her full bluegrass band + special guests for a celebration of the new album Boarding Windows in Paradise!

Announcing “Borderline,” releasing today via Compass Records!  What an honor to collaborate with Charlottesville band, Love Canon: Jay Starling (Dobro), Adam Larrabee (banjo), Andy Thacker (mandolin), Darrell Muller (bass), + Jesse Harper (guitar).  Power vocals by Andrea Zonn, Shelby Means + Adam Chaffins (vocals) and fiddle by Stuart Duncan. This 1984 Madonna hit is a treat in the hands of these musicians. Thank you for listening and sharing here!
