In Their Words: “Brink Brinkman is a name that has been reputable in the bluegrass genre for years. Brink sent me this tune and I couldnât pass up recording it. The song was reminiscent of something you would hear by the first-generation favorites. The lyric sounded 80 years old, and initially thatâs what gravitated me to it. When recording, all of the instruments organically complemented each other to pay homage to those first-generation stylists that influenced us all. I couldnât be more excited to share âUnder the Weatherâ with you!” — Jesse Smathers
