The latest single from Amanda Cook is a gloriously banjo led bluegrass number, that blends the saddest of lyrics with that sparkling joyful sound, it’s the magical contradiction that underpins the best of bluegrass.  Now entering her 10th year as leader of the Amanda Cook Band; Amanda Cook has certainly made her mark on the bluegrass scene, her fifth album is out this Autumn and before that she will make her Opry debut on July 7th.

The song ‘Last Road Going Home‘ was originally written by Harley Allen and features Amanda Cook on lead vocal; Carolyne Van Lierop on banjo and harmony vocal; Troy Boone on mandolin; Brady Wallen on guitar and harmony vocal; Joshua Faul on bass; and George Mason on fiddle. The track was engineered, mixed and mastered by Aaron Ramsey.

Sure, I could climb high in a tree, or go to Skye on my holiday. I could be happy. All I really want is the excitement of first hearing The Byrds, the amazement of decades of Dylan's music, or the thrill of seeing a band like The Long Ryders live. That's not much to ask, is it?
