The Infamous Stringdusters heat up NYC with Thursday snow show

The Infamous Stringdusters timed their late-fall trip into New York City with the first snow of the season. Throughout Thursday afternoon it snowed considerably, but the show must go on! Although some Stringdusters fans no doubt got stuck in New Jersey and Long Island, the Gramercy Theatre was packed with music fans eager to warm up with some progressive bluegrass sounds. After an opening set from The Way Down Wanderers, the Dusters set up for the first of two sets. Kicking t

Why WWG Steamboat Will Create a Seismic Shift in Festival Culture

Words by Timo Mitchel Winter Wondergrass has cemented itself as a staple for Colorado music and beer lovers. What started in a parking lot of Crazy Mountain Brewery in Edwards, CO back in 2013, has evolved into a sold-out multi-ski-town festival that sees skiing, craft beer, and today’s best bluegrass collide. The move from Avon, Colorado’s Nottingham Park to Knoll Lot in Steamboat Springs was a controversial but ultimately crafty move by the festival organizers. This is the

Suwannee Springfest: A Family Affair with Beautiful Scenery and Great Music

Words & Photos by Jeremy Nicholson The 19th Annual Suwannee Springfest began with dark clouds and a discouraging forecast on Thursday. During a light drizzle, I searched for a dry spot to set up camp beneath the towering oak and pine trees. Suwannee Springfest has a smaller attendance compared to some of the park’s other, but that would prove to be perfect for finding a quaint spot where I could relax in my hammock before the pickin’ began. The bulk of festivalgoers showed up

ALBUM REVIEW: Grandpa’s Cough Medicine’s ‘180 Proof’ stays true to their roo

Nothing gets me going like some fast pickin’, toe tappin’ bluegrass: the sounds of the banjo, the deep bass keeping everything together, and of course the southern style of shredding bluegrass guitar. Songs about mountains, rivers, and broken hearts come standard with a traditional bluegrass group, but one band stands out amongst the rest with a roaring style of “outlaw bluegrass.” Grandpa’s Cough Medicine has changed the game. The Jacksonville, FL trio finds ways to paint a

Greensky Bluegrass Smashes Two Nights At The Brooklyn Bowl

Photograph by Andrew Blackstein Over the past two nights, Greensky Bluegrass brought mountain music to Brooklyn, NY. Dodging the forecast of a “historic blizzard,” Greensky was able to land safely in the Big Apple to deliver four sets of forward-thinking string music to a packed house. The first night saw the band mix in their ‘hits’ with bluegrass classics. “Old Barns” preceded the classic “Pig In A Pen” and “What Happened To Jim?” made way for a cover of Newgrass Revival’s

The Travelin McCourys Headline Bluegrass Sampler @ NYC’s City Winery

The Travelin McCourys headlined a “bluegrass sampler platter” at City Winery in New York City this past Sunday. Joining the bluegrass family was Bryan Sutton, Sierra Hull, The Gibson Brothers, Tim O’Brian, along with special guests. Sutton got the night started with a full-band fiddle tune before retracting to a country duet. The Asheville-born guitar player then led the full band in a riveting version of his tune “That’s Where I Belong” and made way for Sierra Hull. Sierra H

SHOW REVIEW: Keller and his Compadres show some Rocky Mountain Love!

Keller Williams came through the Rocky Mountains for the weekend stopping, in Keystone, CO for two nights of “Keller and his Compadres.” The two nights would each feature a different combination of Keller Williams and his friends. Night one, which would turn out to be the bluegrass night of the two, had Keller joined by Stringdusters Andy Falco on guitar and Andy Hall on dobro as well as Leftover Salmon’s Andy Thorn on banjo. Night two was a reunion of Keller Williams and the

Yonder Mountain String Band & Larry Keel Experience Do Brooklyn Bowl

It was a celebration of string music at the Brooklyn Bowl this past weekend, as Yonder Mountain String Band and the Larry Keel Experience ended a wild tour with a sold out show in one of Brooklyn’s finest venues. The banter was fiery Saturday night as Ben Kaufmann came out saying, “You look so good Brooklyn…but you would, wouldn’t you?” It was all fun and games as the now-five-piece bluegrass ensemble raged a two-set show for Jacob Jolliff’s homecoming. The night began with t

Trampled By Turtles played David Letterman’s Late Night show last night. They did “Are You Behind A Shining Star?” off the new album Wild Animals. The album came out yesterday, and is a great listen.

On May 30th and 31st bluegrass group Fruition took over Cervantes’ Other Side in Denver for what turned into two very special nights of music. The Oregon based quintet supplied fans with 6 sets of music across 2 days. Of those sets, 2 were apart of a very special day time patio set where fans were treated to tunes and food as a pre-party for night 2. One way they made it extra special was by continually bringing up friends to play with them each of the nights. Some of those f

Wanee Preview: 10 Songs We Hope To Hear

Out of the 12+ festivals and many concerts I went to last year, nothing was quite like Wanee. The caliber of talent is next-level at this one folks, from the Allman Brothers themselves to the new-school torch-runners like moe. and Umphrey’s. With so much damned talent appearing next weekend, I can’t help but to think of all the tunes I want to hear from these guys. So, as any good writer does, I decided to jot my ideas down and publish them like somebody actually cares. Allma

Suwannee Springfest: A Family Affair

Nothing makes me feel more at home then reading the sign “Spirit of Suwannee Music Park,” and after attending many of this past years festivals held there, I can say none of them supplied the family-friendly vibe like the 18th annual Suwannee Springfest. From the root beer float stand to the kids tent, Springfest is a great event for the music-loving family. Wondering through the campgrounds I immediately noticed something was a little off from other festivals. This crowd of
