Lindsay Lou just dropped the fourth and final episode of her docuseries documenting Bluegrass Women, her acclaimed project shining a light on female songwriters who’ve been quietly shaping bluegrass for decades.
The album itself brings together heavy hitters like Molly Tuttle, Sierra Hull, Aoife O’Donovan, Sarah Jarosz, and Laurie Lewis to perform ten songs written by women, many of whom never got the credit they deserved. Ola Belle Reed’s “I’ve Endured” was popularized by Del McCoury. Ma Rainey first recorded “C.C. Rider,” but Elvis made it famous. Ricky Skaggs’ “All I Ever Loved Was You”? Written by his mother, Dorothy Skaggs.
The docuseries captures the energy behind the sessions, the camaraderie of women navigating a male-dominated genre, cross-generational connections, and even Lou and producer Shani Gandhi preparing for motherhood. It’s less about the technical details and more about the human side of creating something rare.
“Just like having pickers like Molly Tuttle and Sierra Hull out there showing little girls that there is a place for them now in bluegrass, I want to show where there always has been,” Lou says.
The New York Times called it “an all-star album,” and Billboard noted it’s giving “a long-overdue spotlight” to older generations of women songwriters. Lou just wrapped performances at CaveFest and heads to the IBMA conference in Chattanooga next for a live eTown radio taping.
