Darren Nicholson of the NC, bluegrass band Balsam Range stops by Mandolin Mondays this week for a spin on this Judy Garland classic with his lovely Duff A-style.



Darren Nicholson is a Grammy-nominated musician from Western North Carolina. He's been with Balsam Range since their formation in 2007. Since then they've gone on to bring their music to some of the biggest audiences in bluegrass music around the world--not to mention impressive chart action and over 13 IBMA awards to boot.

Darren also has had a busy solo career. Back in 2018, he released a powerful bluegrass instrumental record entitled Fret a Spell. Give it a listen here: https://store.cdbaby.com/cd/darrennicholson2
