DESCRIPTION:
“Crossville” first appeared on a 2003 album by writer Ricky Skaggs and a band featuring young Andy Leftwich and guitarist Cody Kilby. As part of Aced, a collection that showcases Leftwich’s ability to craft compelling instrumentals, the tune’s twisty melody carries a Celtic flavor with rhythmic bluegrass roots. It’s also a reunion with banjoist Matt Menefee and bassist Byron House, nodding to Leftwich’s past while revealing his growth on fiddle and mandolin.
