FROM TERESA ROMANS AND THE HEART OF THE BLUEGRASS ASSOCIATION (HOBA)
Hello! Welcome to the April issue of the Bluegrass Courier. I am a little late but I had so many things that I wanted to incude that I needed to wait to get more information together for you all.
There is lots of picking going on. The jam sessions downtown have been great and music shows are starting to pop up all around. Bluegrass festival season is about to hit full swing.
I hope everyone had a wonderful Easter and got to spend time with the Lord, the famly and the food. I personally got to do all three and even helped find a few Easter eggs.
Mother’s Day is fast approaching and in case I do not get around very fast next month, let me go ahead and wish our mothers a wonderful day. Wishing you a few allergies, no bad weather, a good spring and lots of bluegrass music!
Teresa Romans, editor
Heart of the Ozarks Bluegrass Association

NATIONAL BLUEGRASS NEWS CYBERGRASS
PiThe legendary master of the three-finger Scruggs-style banjo, Earl Scruggs, 88, died March 28, of natural causes. He passed away in Nashville. Scruggs has been in declining health for some time.
April 26 - Dailey & Vincent will be on Larry’s Country Diner on the RFD-TV network. Jessie Baker will be joining the band as banjo player and harmony vocalist. Former banjoist and vocalist Joe Dean will pursue other endeavors with Doyle Lawson & Quicksilver.
(Bluegrass Today)
Doug Dillard has been released from the hospital. He was admitted into a rehab facility and his wife, Vikki, tells us that Doug is in good spirits and eager to get better so he can play the banjo again. Dillard was hospitalized in March for serious breathing problems (an issue he has encountered a number of times in recent years). He is currently 75 years of age.
Charlie Lawson (guitarist and lead singer with Michael Cleveland & Flamekeeper) and his wife Melissa are celebrating the birth of his first child, Jolyn Annette Lawson, born April 4 at 1:55AM. Congratulations to the happy couple.
Rebel Records announced May 8 as the release date for Home From The Mills, the second recording from Jimmy Gaudreau & Moondi Klein. This pair of bluegrass veterans have served their time in some of the most celebrated acts in the business: Jimmy with The Country Gentlemen, J.D. Crowe & The New South, and The Tony Rice Unit, Moondi with Seldom Scene and Chesapeake.
Buddy Melton, fiddler for Balsam Range, continues to recuperate from surgery after being injured in a farming accident involving an unhappy cow and a gate. Apparently she kicked a gate and it swung back and caught Buddy in the face and head. He has undergone surgery and may well have further surgeries, but is mending well and we wish him a speedy recovery.
Ozar Bluegrass News

Convoy of Hope Concert
Mark and Gene’s Sixth Annual Mid-Winter Bluegrass Festival for Convoy of Hope was — again — a huge success. All the bands did an outstanding job: The Dean Family, Jimmie Allison and the Ozark Rounders, Lonesome Road, The Kellys, Brightwater Junction, Cedar Hill, Casey and the Attaboys, and Special Consensus.
Convoy of Hope is an awesome organization helping provide relief to those around the world facing major disasters. It does not matter if you are in Branson, Joplin, or across the world, Convoy of Hope is there with their faith-based outreach. This year, after expenses were paid, we were able to present Convoy of Hope with a check for over $3,100. Gene and I would like to thank the Greater Ozarks Bluegrass Society members who volunteered their time and effort. Also, thank you to River Bluff Fellowship for providing such a wonderful venue for the concert. God bless you all, Mark Withers.
PEPPER JACKSON WRITES ABOUT THE OLD WIRE ROAD
"The Missouri Ozarks are blessed with traditional music, unique geography and great people. A mix of these assets came together in August 2009 to form The Old Wire Road.
"Randy & Susan Rapp along with friends; Randy & Cindy Gamble and Denny & Sandy Gold, have spent the last few years playing music together as they camped at the Starvy Creek Bluegrass Festival.
"The mix of voices and musical talent drew many spectators to their jam sessions. When the idea was presented to form a bluegrass band, the friends knew it was a calling they each wanted to answer.
"The Old Wire Road was formed and dedicated to the genre of traditional bluegrass and bluegrass gospel music.
"We invite you to take a trip on The Old Wire Road as it winds through the Missouri Ozarks leading it's listeners through a blend of great vocals and instrumentals. As you travel down the road, you will enjoy the sounds of the journey and look forward to spending more time discovering what lies over the next hill."
Written by Pepper Jackson.
GALENA, MISSOURI’S FARNUM FAMILY BLUEGRASS NEWS
Greetings & Happy New Year from the Missouri Ozarks!
We’re about to embark on the biggest family music trip... of our lives! We’re going to the Rio Grande Valley for a five week tour. We've over 30 concerts booked. Most concerts are for residents of some of the many RV parks catering to "Winter Texans". These are retired folks from all over the country, even Canada. We'll be pretty busy, but we hope to take in some of the local sites while down in that area… and consume LOTS of grapefruit & other citrus!
If you or any of your family or friends are anywhere nearby while we're down there, we'd be very pleased to have you come out & see us. It would be nice to meet or get reacquainted. We're doing a few free shows, however the RV parks charge a modest fee (part of which we'll call our livelihood). If you've any questions, please contact us via email, Facebook or phone.
We are also booking for the balance of 2012 (and beyond), so please contact us to schedule a community concert, school assembly, or music for worship service or other church related activity.
NEW FAMILY ALBUM:
YES, that's right! Our new CD – just completed in time for our Texas Tour – titled, "Leaning…" is now available…
We'll be fulfilling any CD orders as soon as we return from Texas. If you'd like a copy, please mail an offering ($10-$15 suggested). Please allow at least six weeks. Thank you.
In closing, please keep our family in your prayers for safe travels, good performances and that our music and ministry for Christ and His Kingdom would be a blessing and encouragement to all...
Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord. ~~~ Colossians 3:16
