2014 Bluegrass tribute to late, great singer/songwriter John Denver. COUNTRY BOY showcases Special Consensus at the musical center of each track with a guest cast of Grammy-winning and International Bluegrass Music Association-winning vocalists and instrumentalists. Produced by Alison Brown, the album features a solid 10 song set of Denver hits and lesser known songs. Stand out tracks include 'Country Roads' (with John Cowan sharing lead vocal duties), 'Back Home Again' (with Dale Ann Bradley on a vocal duet), 'Wild Montana Skies' (with reigning Female Vocalist of the Year Claire Lynch) and 'Thank God I'm a Country Boy' done as an instrumental featuring twin fiddles (Michael Cleveland and Buddy Spicher) and twin banjos (Greg Cahill and Alison Brown). Peter Rowan's distinctive step-out vocal on 'Rocky Mountain High' is sure to become a must have for Bluegrass fans as is Jim Lauderdale's countrified rendition of 'Poems, Prayers and Promises.' Other guests include Rhonda Vincent, Rob Ickes and Jason Carter.
