Over the weekend, Planet Bluegrass announced the first round of the 2014 Telluride lineup, which includes the usual suspects as well as Seattle’s Brandi Carlile and both The Lone Bellow and Aoife O’Donovan of our hometown of Brooklyn. Also of note, perennial performer Bela Fleck will play with the Colorado Symphony. Earlier this year, Fleck released The Imposter (Amazon MP3 & Spotify), an album he recorded with the Nashville Symphony Orchestra.
