James Alan Shelton In The Studio To Lend Instrumental Support for Isaac Moore’s First CD Project!

Guitarist James Alan Shelton and fiddler Dewey Brown were at Tom T. and Dixie Hall’s studio in Franklin, TN on August 4-5, 2011 to help 13 year old bluegrass singing prodigy Isaac Moore lay down tracks his first CD project. Actually, Isaac is recording two projects at once: a tribute to his heroes, The Stanley Brothers and an all-gospel album. Also helping out on the sessions were Don Rigsby- mandolin, Beth Lawrence-bass and Troy Engle- mandolin. Steve Sparkman is slated to play banjo and a host of guest artists including Rhonda Vincent and Don Rigsby are being lined up to add vocal harmony. Isaac, who loves the old-time sound of the Stanley Brothers, has made several onstage appearances with Ralph Stanley & The Clinch Mountain Boys for the past few years including Ralph’s own festival in Coeburn, Virginia. Recording engineer for the sessions was Miss Rebekah Long, who did an excellent job of getting the sounds down on tape….or hard drive as it is these days of digital recording. All the musicians enjoyed the warm hospitality extended by Tom T. and Miss Dixie during the sessions. Watch for these two new projects by Isaac Moore to be released soon. No word yet as to what label they will be on but please check out Isaac Moore on Facebook and see what the buzz is all about!
