This week on The Hometown Bluegrass Show, we’re taking a trip back to where it all began.

Join us as we celebrate the 25th anniversary of Josh Williams’ debut album from 2001—a project that helped launch one of bluegrass music’s most respected voices and pickers. From those early studio sessions to the road miles that followed, we reflect on the music, the memories, and the moments that shaped Josh’s journey.

Tim and Josh sit down for a heartfelt, behind-the-scenes conversation about:

What it was like recording that first album

The songs that still stand the test of time

Stories from the early days of touring and learning the ropes

How bluegrass—and Josh’s sound—has evolved over the past 25 years

Whether you’ve been a fan since day one or just discovering his music, this episode is a celebration of tradition, growth, and the roots that keep bluegrass strong.
