i got inspired to write a bluegrass gospel song, and BIAB has some great tracks to build on so this is what I came up with.
Won't you Shine On Me

https://soundcloud.com/ronniefields/wont-you-shine-on-me

Won’t You Shine On Me

In the land of sweet tea and magnolias,
Where the son shines bright, and the music flows.
There’s a feeling in the air, you cannot deny,
It’s the spirit of the Lord, and it’s coming through the sky.
Chorus:
Oh holy spirit, won’t you shine of me?
From the rolling hills and Crystal sea.
With a heart full of joy, and a soul so free,
Holy spirit, won’t you shine on me.

We gather round front porches, strumming our guitars,
Singing songs of your blessings from afar.
Oh how we rejoice, we tell our stories true,
Of how you are there to see us through.
Repeat Chorus:

434 fiddle, soloist, Bluegrass EV 130

Hi, Ronnie.

I always like a song that kicks off strong, like you do here.

Your melodies are always solid, and while I'm not a bluegrass expert, it sounds like bluegrass to me - backing and instrumental breaks.

Fun listen! Love it. smile

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

Ronnie, you've definitely got that gospel bluegrass thing going on. Love your harmonies! You could bring up the level of your band a bit in the mix so that the their playing can be heard more clearly during the vocals. Or not. Perfectly enjoyable as is. THANKS for sharing!

Toe tapping bluegrass with a great message.
Super vocal
Great mix
One of if not your best to date.

We played in bluegrass bands for decades so it's nice to see a BG tune here.

Enjoyed it,

Hi Ronnie,

Traditional bluegrass at its best! Your vocal is stellar on this - your voice is a bit stronger than on most of your songs - and I like it!

That was a terrific listen - thanks!

Wishing you the very best,

Alan
