Hot Rize had a hit with this one back in the day. They’ve reunited for a record and a tour, and they’re sounding better than ever.

As always, Tim O'Brien exemplifies the best of the heart singers of early country music, and the romantic Irish tenors that came before them.

This is “Colleen Malone”.

Nice to see progressive bluegrassers, Hot Rize, back in the saddle, touring behind a new album. This is one of those bands whose powers remain undiminished with time.

Here they are, live, with the first single from their new album – a song they call “Western Skies”.
