Surprise Release: Billy Strings & Bryan Sutton Drop “Live at the Legion”

April 11, 2025

 

On April 7, 2025, bluegrass fans were treated to an unexpected gem when Billy Strings and Bryan Sutton released their surprise live album, Live at the Legion.

Known for its no-frills honky-tonk vibe and die-hard traditionalist crowd, the Legion provided the perfect setting for this rootsy collaboration.
