About
Several of the 1980s Doyle Lawson & Quicksilver LPs were re-released in pairs on CD in the late '90s by the group's longtime label, Sugar Hill. Lawson resurfaced with the new gospel albums Just Over in Heaven and Gospel Parade in the early 2000s, and in 2002 Lawson released the masterly Hard Game of Love, his first secular disc in some years. He bounced back from coronary problems later that year and continued to perform. In 2005 he put out the impeccably played/produced You Gotta Dig a Little Deeper, once again with Quicksilver, followed by More Behind the Picture Than the Wall in 2007. Lonely Street and Light on My Feet Ready to Fly appeared in 2009 and 2010, respectively. Lawson released two albums for Crossroads -- 2011's Drive Time and 2012's Sing Me a Song About Jesus -- before moving to Mountain Home for 2013's Roads Well Traveled. He stayed at the label for 2014's Open Carefully, Message Inside, 2015's Grammy-nominated In Session, 2016's Burden Bearer, and 2017's Life Is a Story. 2022's Roundtable was issued on Billy Blue Records. Lawson is the longtime host of his own Doyle Lawson & Quicksilver Bluegrass Festival in Denton, North Carolina. ~ James Manheim, Rovi
