Pink houses. Lonely ol’ nights. Chili dogs outside the Tasty Freeze. Ain’t that America? According to John Mellencamp it certainly is. His songs—critical and celebratory—reflect the real and imagined Midwest purity. On this special tribute album, the most popular songs from his canon are transformed into warm bluegrass instrumentals. Top-notch musicians blend mandolin, guitar, fiddle, banjo, and dobro to capture Mellencamp’s passion and defiance.
