The INFAMOUS STRINGDUSTERS are excited to announce two special guests at their summer tour kick-off at Red Rocks on May 6: LEE ANN WOMACK and NICKI BLUHM. Both singers are featured on the acoustic five-piece's new album Ladies & Gentlemen, which was released earlier this year (February 5, Compass Records) to much critical acclaim.

The modern bluegrass virtuosos--Andy Hall (dobro), Andy Falco (guitar), Chris Pandolfi (banjo), Jeremy Garrett (fiddle), and Travis Book (upright bass)--have been on the road in support of Ladies & Gentlemen non-stop since early February, and are taking a few weeks off before launching the summer tour in a big way at Red Rocks. "Both Lee Ann and Nicki are premier singers, and having them join us for our Red Rocks show should make for an electric night!," says Hall.

The 12-song collection of new INFAMOUS STRINDUSTERS songs features a who's-who of singers including JOSS STONE, MARY CHAPIN CARPENTER, JOAN OSBORNE, SARA WATKINS, SARA JAROSZ and more (full track listing below). Rolling Stone said, "But this is no novelty concept album. Instead, it's the sound of a band expanding its reach with some of the best voices in the business." Check out the article here. The magazine had previously debuted one of the tracks, "I Believe" featuring Ms. Womack, which you can hear here. They described it as "a delicately solemn ballad in the key of country that's like an Appalachian version of the Youngbloods' 'Get Together.'"
In other exciting news, Relix Magazine treated its readers to another exclusive song, "See How Far You've Come" featuring Sara Watkins. Check out the new song here. Meanwhile, BluegrassToday.com debuted "Ladders In The Sky" featuring Claire Lynch, which you can find here. And American Songwriter shared "Won't Be Long" with Sarah Jarosz here.
