Inside Out

She’s been named the International Bluegrass Music Association’s Bass Player of the Year a record seven times, but Missy Raines never lets displays of instrumental virtuosity get in the way of a good song or a swinging groove on her first album with nimble new backing group The New Hip. Inside Out rests comfortably at the sweet spot where bluegrass and jazz meet, swinging lightly throughout most of its 10 tracks. The album is at its best when Missy and friends stretch out and explore the contours of a tune like the frisky instrumental “Stop, Drop & Wiggle.”
