S1 E7. Mike Bub: Sideman Extraordinaire (Part 1)

  From his time of growing up as a competition banjo player in the southwest, Arizona native Mike Bub has been a bluegrass staple -- from his time with the Weary Hearts to the Del McCoury Band, and even today as he is one of the most sought after bass players in Nashville. In Part 1 of this two-part conversation with Mike and host Daniel Mullins, we hear about Mike's upbringing, the culture of bluegrass competitions, playing bluegrass internationally, and much more. Let’s join Mike and Daniel backstage at the Society for the Preservation of Bluegrass Music in America (SPBGMA)’s annual event in Nashville, TN.  This episode is brought to you by the following sponsors:  -- Samson's Haircare: samsonshaircare.com (Use code BLUEGRASS to save 10%.)  -- Best Self Co: bestself.co (Use code BLUEGRASS to save 15%)  -- Hoosier Devil: hoosierdevil.com
