The Petersens - Home Concerts 4, Branson, MO, 6-25-2021 to 12-15-2021

I've posted a lot of albums by the acoustic duo Reina del Cid and Toni Lindgren. I consider the Petersens to be similar to that duo. Like them, they post a lot of videos on YouTube of acoustic covers they've performed of classic songs. They have a more traditional, "square" image, and occasionally do religious songs that I'm not fond of (and thus done include in these compilations). But they're similarly very talented, and mostly feature female lead vocals, which I particularly like. So if you've enjoyed the Reina del Cid and Toni Lindgren albums I've posted, I strongly suspect you'll like these.

They have what you might call a bluegrass sound, but you don't have to be a bluegrass fan to like this. I'm not a fan of the genre, and I do like this anyway. They do some traditional bluegrass numbers, but they also do songs by the likes of Coldplay and the Cranberries here. As I mentioned above, I'm normally not a fan of overtly religious songs, but occasionally I like one on musical terms enough to include, and that's the case with "Go Tell John" here.

Here's a list of the original artists for the songs they've covered: 

01 Steel Rails - Alison Krauss
02 The Star-Spangled Banner - John Stafford Smith & Francis Scott Key
03 The Way I Am - Ingrid Michaelson
04 Viva La Vida - Coldplay
05 Back Home Again - John Denver
06 Go Tell John - Tammy Griffin
07 Tulsa Time - Don Williams / Eric Clapton
08 Dreams - Cranberries
09 I'm Gonna Miss Her - Brad Paisley
10 Rocky Top - Osborne Brothers
11 The Thanksgiving Song - Ben Rector
12 Wayfaring Stranger - traditional
13 If We Make It through December- Merle Haggard

The cover photo is a screenshot taken from one of their 2021 videos. It's hard to find a shot of all the band members close in, so I'm glad I finally have one for this cover.
