143. From Flatpicking to Spotify: Martin Gilmore's Journey Through Modern Bluegrass
This week, I’m joined by bluegrass virtuoso Martin Gilmore - a powerhouse songwriter and performer who’s had a banner year, taking home top honors at the Kerrville, Telluride Troubadour, and Folks Fest songwriting contests.
In this episode, we dig into:
• The impacts of entering and winning songwriting contests
• The impact of Billy Strings on the bluegrass and Americana world
• How Spotify has reshaped the landscape for independent artists
• A live guitar demo where Martin breaks down beginner, intermediate, and advanced bluegrass rhythm styles
