Bluegrass guitar licks are abundant in this bluegrass instrumental. Bluegrass gospel hymns, like What a Friend We Have in Jesus, are among our favorite country gospel songs. Kelly Bogan plays this bluegrass hymns instrumental in multi-track format using his favorite Martin guitars, among other instruments.

"What a Friend We Have in Jesus" is a Christian hymn originally written by preacher Joseph M. Scriven as a poem in 1855 to comfort his mother, who was living in Ireland while he was in Canada. Scriven originally published the poem anonymously, and only received full credit for it in the 1880s. The tune to the hymn was composed by Charles Crozat Converse in 1868. William Bolcom composed a setting of the hymn.

All of the instruments used on this recording were played by Kelly Bogan, a music school owner, teacher, and songwriter from Spokane, Washington. © 2020, Kelly Bogan
