Some Live Sturgill Simpson Bluegrass for Charity

Sturgill Simpson Ryman

Sturgill Simpson provided us with a musical treat during the coronavirus pandemic. To raise money for charity, Simpson and his band gave us some bluegrass performed live at Nashville’s Ryman Auditorium. Due to the pandemic, there was no audience beyond those watching online.

In the video that was live-streamed on June 5, 2010, Simpson explains how the one-night show was the result of an Instagram joke. His posts about “Dick Daddy Survival School” developed into an effort to raise money for charity. Thus, his fundraising efforts benefit the Special Forces Foundation, the Equity Alliance, and the MusiCares COVID-19 Relief Fund.

So, sit back and relax and enjoy some wonderful bluegrass versions of some Sturgill Simpson songs like “Long White Line.” Check it out.
