Julie Richmond - Hooked On Grass Little Angel

Review by Robin Lenard

Hooked On Grass Little Angel is an album that showcases the talent of bluegrass musician Julie Richmond. The album features 11 tracks that are a mix of original compositions and traditional bluegrass songs, all performed with a high level of skill and energy.

Richmond's vocals are a standout feature of the album, with her clear and powerful voice perfectly suited to the genre. She is equally adept at fast-paced numbers like "John Henry" and slower, more contemplative tracks like "Little Angel", which showcases her ability to convey emotion through her singing.

The instrumentation on the album is also excellent, with Richmond's guitar playing providing a solid foundation for the banjo, fiddle, and mandolin that are featured prominently throughout. The musicianship is particularly impressive on tracks like "Clinch Mountain Backstep", which features some impressive soloing from all the players.

Summary by Robin Lenard

Hooked On Grass Little Angel is a well-crafted and enjoyable bluegrass album that should appeal to fans of the genre. Julie Richmond's talents as a singer and musician are on full display here, making this a standout release in her discography.
