At Thirsty Lizards, we’re all about teamwork.
So when Jonathan Edwards wanted to bring in Beverly Howell, a classy, web-savvy music promoter and designer, to work on his new web site, we were more than happy to oblige. Beverly worked with the Lizards to develop a sophisticated new design, with an advanced online web editor that has taken Jonathan’s new web site to the next level.

We’re pleased to announce that IBMM, the International Bluegrass Music Museum’s web site went live on April 4, 2009.

We are honored to have been selected to work on such a prestigious web site and with such a great group of people. Visit the web site, then visit the museum (tell them we say “hi”) and then support your bluegrass museum so that they can continue to document “the tradition”.

Well, the Lizards, once again, enjoyed their trip to the Joe Val Bluegrass Festival, held at the Sheraton in Framingham, Mass. People were jamming everywhere and the music was proactically non-stop from Friday night through most of Sunday. Well-known acts abounded, including legendary band-leader Bobby Osborne and 2008’s seven-time IBMA winners Dailey & Vincent.
I didn’t get photos of everyone this year. Instead I focused on a few acts, Dry Branch Fire Squad, NewFound Road, The Kruger Brothers, Charlie Sizemore, the Josh Williams Band, Bobby Osborne and Dailey & Vincent. Below are some of my photos …

Here is a video to give a flavor of the music and the variety as we roam the halls:
