Here's a bluegrass group I like a lot, at a festival in France last August. This is a working band that's 'on the bubble'... the musicianship is super-tight, the show not quite yet polished, but you can tell they're going somewhere, and they want it.

East Nash Grass got a new fan.   Thanks for sharing!

Followed the trail from Coz' link to Deadgrass. They've got a cool/fun thing together.

Wow, Ed of H .

I enjoyed that immensely

it reminded me of this, I caught it on the Nashville Network many moons ago!

Playing For Change always does it right.

I think the 'Dusters had a little better cut on He's Gone there... 

I got into a long discussion about Darol Anger's influence on the fiddle music community yesterday afternoon with somebody in the shop. Somebody ought to write a book about that guy. I'd have to say his Republic Of Strings concept project did more to shape this subsect of music than anyone else I can of. Here's Brittany Haas (one of his many protege') with Darol and his current band, Mr. Sun.

I really liked this.

Oh Boy, one of them there frightening combinations 

Jack DeJohnette, Pat Metheny, Herbie Hancock and Dave Holland - Shadow Dance (live)

A slice in time:  Shadowfax in '85.  A bit of trivia for you - the snare & cymbals Struart is plating actually belonged to my old roommate & 2-band crewmate Norm Krueger (who Jimmy J may well know, as he just retired as head of sound at Ravinia Festival in Highland Park, IL):

...saving this for my 25 minute car trip in a few. (Tuesday morning is coffee/guitar jam, then go drop-off/pick-up work) I figure them horns oughta' clear the mental noise, so I can 'speak' guitar better.
