I know they don’t represent a completely traditional bluegrass band, but i gotto give props to Yonder Mountain String Band. They’re a hard working, talented, and progressive band that, in my opinion, has opened up bluegrass music to a whole new crowd of people. Will they ever be considered bluegrass royalty with the likes of Doc Watson, Earl Scruggs, Ricky Skaggs or Del McCoury? Probably not, but thats ok.
Not only do they write some pretty good songs, but they are a blast to see. They have a lot of fun on stage, and bring a ton of energy with them. I must say, the more recent shows i’ve seen of them haven’t been as good as in the past, but still a great time. There was one show i saw at the Wilma Theater in Missoula, MT that was off the hook. It was probably one of the rowdiest shows i’ve ever been to. At one point they had to tell the crowd to stop throwing bottles around. Crazy Times.
Well, this is a song i enjoy listening to and seeing. Its a great tune, and brings a lot of energy. I hope you enjoy.
Sorry MJ,
