Metropolitan Blues All-Stars

The Metroplitan Blues All-Stars were a beloved Eastern Kentucky band in the 1980s who made it big nationally, performing on NPR’s Mountain Stage and touring for decades. Their electic blend of blues, country, rock n’ roll, and old-time mountain music earned them fans in every genre, with many bemoaning their absence from the tour circuit today. “Trying Times” features David White, Frank Schaap, Rodney Hatfield, Nick Stump and Rick Baldwin, as well as Caroline Dahl prior to her successful solo career as a boogie-woogie, roots musician.
