Buddy Miller and Jim Lauderdale are genuine Americana pioneers. Their solo recordings, songwriting, studio session work and live performances (as frontmen and musical directors) have made them treasures of the roots and country music scenes.
In an unexpected moment of inspiration, the two have collaborated to make a true duets record, trading licks and verses for one of the most inspired and fun albums of 2012.
Buddy and Jim was released in December. The duo will perform in Louisville Feb. 1 at Headliners and on WFPK's Live Lunch the same day.
