Bluegrass legend Del McCoury is celebrating his first of two COVID-19 vaccination shots this week.
“Jean and I got our vaccine today,” the 81-year-old guitarist wrote on Jan. 28, referring to his wife. “Looking forward to a better 2021.”
Naturally, the pandemic has sidelined McCoury – who would usually be touring with his namesake band – but he’s still managed to stay in touch with fans by sharing some covers and even teasing some new music.
