269: Bluegrass Unlimited Podcast with Don Stiernberg

      This week we feature mandolin master Don Stiernberg.  A protégé of the great Jethro Burns, Don is known for both his bluegrass and jazz chops on the mandolin and guitar.  In this podcast I’ll talk with Don about his years learning from and performing with Jethro Burns and the connections that Jethro had with music legends like Hank Williams, Sr., Chet Adkins, Bill Monroe and Red Rector.  We’ll also talk about Don’s work with Special Consensus over the years.
