Bryan Sutton - From Roots to Branches
Episode 517
Wednesday, 22 April, 2026
My guest on this episode is Bryan Sutton.We're talking about Bryan's new project From Roots to Branches, the follow up to his 2006 album Not Too Far From the Tree, which celebrates its 20th anniversary this year.The new album features a series of duets with musicians from the wold of bluegrass and beyond, plus a couple of unreleased tunes he recorded with Doc Watson and Tony Rice.We chat about the original idea behind Not Too Far.... and how the new project differs; who Bryan chose to record with this time (including Billy Strings, Chris Eldridge, Sierra Hull, Trey Hensley, Joe Bonamassa and more); why he's choosing to release it as a series of tracks over several months, before putting the full album out, and how it feels to have gone from recording with his heroes to taking on the mentor role for the next generation of flatpickers.You'll find all the tracks released so far on Spotify, Tidal and all other streaming platforms. There's a great video for The Devil Went Down to Deep Gap on YouTube.You can get bluegrass guitar lessons from Bryan Sutton on ArtistWorks (I can highly recommend them).Oh, and Bryan wrote and recorded the cool theme tune you'll hear on this episode too!
