John had served as primary author and editor for The Bluegrass Blog from its launch in 2006 until being folded into Bluegrass Today in September of 2011. Adam Steffey is currently the mandolin player with the Dan Tyminski Band. It now featured mandolinist Adam Steffey, banjoist/guitarist Ron Block, bassist Barry Bales, and guitarist Tim Stafford; Stafford later left the group and was replaced by Dan Tyminski. This album featured a completely different lineup (other than Krauss): Tim Stafford, Ron Block, Adam Steffey, and Barry Bales. In 1992, Stafford was replaced by guitar and mandolin player Dan Tyminski and in 1998, Steffey left and was replaced by dobro player Jerry Douglas. And in that capacity he has found himself a part of several of the most critically-acclaimed outfits in contemporary bluegrass music. This is especially true on numbers like No Place To Hide, which he calls “Mudslide,” and Cloudy Days, both of which had appeared on big-selling Krauss projects in the 1990s.
