Emmylou Harris, Punch Brothers, and Chris Thile will be among the performers at the 43rd annual Telluride Bluegrass Festival, taking place June 16–19, 2016, the weekend before the summer solstice. The preliminary lineup for the much-loved southwestern Colorado event was announced earlier today, just before the winter solstice. For additional details and tickets, visit bluegrass.com/telluride.

Punch Brothers' new album, The Phosphorescent Blues, produced by T Bone Burnett, has been nominated for three Grammy Awards this year: Best Americana Album for The Phosphorescent Blues and Best American Roots Song and Best American Roots Performance for the album track "Julep." The track is among NPR Music's Favorite Songs of 2015, and the album is among NPR Listeners' 100 Favorite Albums. The band recently released an EP of songs from the sessions for The Phosphorescent Blues called The Wireless.

Emmylou Harris's new duo album with Rodney Crowell, The Traveling Kind, is up for two Grammy Awards: Best Americana Album and Best American Roots Song for the title track, which they co-wrote with Cory Chisel. The song is included among NPR Music's Favorite Songs of 2015, and the album is included on the Los Angeles Times list of the 10 Best Albums of 2015, which calls it "a gorgeous reflection on life, hard-won wisdom and celebration from two longtime friends and musical collaborators."

Chris Thile, in addition to the Punch Brothers recordings, recently released a duo album with Edgar Meyer, Bass & Mandolin, and a solo album of Bach Sonatas and Partitas. He closes out 2015 with a pair of duo sets with label mate Brad Mehldau at Bowery Ballroom in New York on December 28.

All of the releases above are available in the Nonesuch Store at 15% off the everyday low price listed on the site, as part of our store's ongoing anniversary sale.

    Composer and trumpeter Ambrose Akinmusire’s honey from a winter stone is out January 17, 2025, on Nonesuch Records. The album, which Ambrose calls a “self-portrait,” features improvisational vocalist Kokayi, pianist Sam Harris, Chiquitamagic on synthesizer, drummer Justin Brown, and the Mivos Quartet. Akinmusire says, “In many respects this entire work is inspired by and is an homage to the work of the composer Julius Eastman and his organic music concept." The opening track, “muffled screams,” is out now.
