Album · 2014 · Sugar Hill SUG-CD 4105

Into My Own was released by Sugar Hill on April 29, 2014 (SUG-CD 4105), Bryan Sutton’s fourth solo album for the label. It was the first on which he sang lead on a substantial share of the tracks, five of its twelve. Two of those, Guy Clark’s “Anyhow, I Love You” and “Swannanoa Tunnel,” were recorded with the Travelin’ McCourys. The other two are solo performances: “Run Away,” Sutton’s own song, played on banjo, and “Been All Around This World,” on guitar, using a 1942 O-17 that his grandfather bought new in San Francisco while in the Navy.

The album opens with “Cricket on the Hearth,” with Noam Pikelny on banjo, Sam Bush on mandolin, Stuart Duncan on fiddle and Greg Garrison on bass, and that quartet backs Sutton on four other tracks. “Ole Blake” is a guitar tune he wrote for Norman Blake, “Overton Waltz” and “Log Jam” are also his, and Bill Frisell is a guest on “Frisell’s Rag,” a tune Sutton wrote as a tribute to the jazz guitarist when he first heard him, shortly after moving to Nashville. Ronnie McCoury is among the other guests. Into My Own was one of five nominees for Best Bluegrass Album at the 2015 Grammy Awards.
