Dave Rawlings & Gilian Welch @ Newport Folk Fest 2009 (more by Jim Brueckner)

The Dave Rawlings Machine rolled into the Cat's Cradle last night [November, 30, 2009], giving the packed crowd over two hours of music before calling it a night.

Rawlings, donning a Stetson hat he says belonged to Bill Monroe with a denim shirt and jeans, was joined by his long time musical partner Gillian Welch as well as Ketch Secor, Willie Watson and Morgan Jahnig from Old Crow Medicine Show. The group played the Dave Rawlings Machine's entire debut album A Friend of a Friend which was given a shot in the arm live. [Triangle Music]
