Dobro player and Bluegrass musician Jerry Douglas has revealed an official music video for “The Fifth Season.” Featuring a collaboration with his band, the piece is a concerto commissioned by The FreshGrass Foundation. The track is part of The Set, his first album in seven years, which was released via Nolivian Records in September.

The “musical puzzle” studio performance video was shot on Nashville’s Music Row by Joshua Britt and Neilson Hubbard for Neighborhoods Apart. Spanning over 10 minutes, the video offers a behind-the-scenes look at the creation of “The Fifth Season.”

After a landmark 2024 that included his induction into the Bluegrass Music Hall of Fame, Douglas will reunite with Alison Krauss & Union Station for their first North American tour in a decade, a 73-date journey spanning coast to coast.

The Set includes five new offerings and six revitalized songs from Douglas’ catalog.

Douglas says of it:

I’ve been producing records for a long time, so I really, really put on that hat for this record. Usually, I like instrumentalists to have free rein in whatever they do. It’s the way they speak. If anybody had an idea, we chased it down to the end. I feel like it’s really finished. I’m really happy with the outcome of this whole experience.
