„Three Bells“ is an historic collaboration between Dobro masters Jerry Douglas (13-time Grammy winner and three-time Country Music Association Musician of the Year,) Mike Auldridge (1970’s Dobro pioneer, member of The Seldom Scene, and sideman for Emmylou Harris and Linda Ronstadt,) and Rob Ickes of Blue Highway, the most awarded instrumentalist in the history of the International Bluegrass Music Association.
„Three Bells“ finds these master musicians employing their prodigious talents to create a set of spare, emotionally-affecting instrumental performances of original tunes and venerable pop and country numbers. Three Bells is these musicians’ first work together since 1994′s Grammy-winning ‘The Great Dobro Sessions,’ and features the final recordings of Douglas’ longtime friend and mentor Auldridge, who passed away shortly after the sessions were completed.

In this recording with V.M. Bhatt, they together explore commonalities and parallels between bluegrass and Hindustani music, proving that the High Lonesome ethos is universal.
