Okay, Folks, many of you first heard of Billy Strings and his music right here on The Kingston Crossroads's Sunday Artist & Song Showcase (SASS). Well, last night, Billy won a brace of prestigious awards from the International Bluegrass Music Association. Please join me in congratulating Billy on these fine achievements! Thanks & Folk On!
