The album is the collection of 15 field recordings made by the late great multi-instrumentalist in Kentucky, Jack Bunch. Recorded at his home in London, Kentucky between 2017 and 2019, the album captures the musical tradition of Laurel County which had been represented by many legends like Pete Steele, B.F. Shelton, Big Andy Whittaker, and Jack’s uncle, Henry Bunch. Jack Bunch was the one of few who inherited these hidden treasures to this generation, and in this record, he played his uncle Henry’s showpieces such as “Shortenin’ Bread” and “Not A Flower on Dogwood Flats”, as well as Jack’s own compositions “Little Dog Branch” and “Cowboy Special”.

“Jack Bunch was the most talented multi-instrumentalist of his time in East Kentucky,” says George Gibson, a renowned banjo master & historian. “We are fortunate that he preserved his Uncle Henry’s music and that his music is also being reserved.”

“This album embodies everything Jack lived for – to tell stories and play traditional Kentucky music for those who wanted to listen,” says Garrett Hedrick, Jack’s bandmate in his later years. “The recordings you hear in this album are sounds that have echoed in the hills of Laurel County for generations. It’s wonderful to see them preserved in their true, raw form – just as Jack would have wanted.”
