Phil Madeira’s latest record “Bliss” is the exuberant followup to “Open Heart” and “Hornet’s Nest”, and completes a trilogy of albums that chronicle his journey from a devastating loss, through the stages of grief, and finally, the celebration of new life and love.

The veteran songwriter (Alison Krauss, Garth Brooks, Keb’ Mo’) and Emmylou Harris sideman retreated to the studio in 2021 with his longtime friends, bassist Chris Donohue and drummer Bryan Owings (both members of Emmylou’s Red Dirt Boys) and produced a stunningly joyous record.
