We met bluegrass icons Kenny and Amanda Smith at a location north of Seattle to capture this version of David Wilcox’s “Catch Me If I Try,” the title track off of their acclaimed 2012 collaboration.
Longtime visitors to this site will realize Kenny is no stranger to the Fretboard Journal. At Wintergrass 2012, we filmed the flatpicking guitar virtuoso performing on three acoustics from 1937. On this tune, Kenny is playing a 1939 Regal 12-fret Jumbo while Amanda performs on her Collings D1A.
