Just lurking the boards for old times sake and noticed there wasn't a TBT thread so I figured I would make one for those who skimmed past their name on the initial glance of the lineup.
They're a great bluegrass band from Northern Minnesota and were named as one of the Top 25 live bands by Paste Magazine. They have been around since 2003 and put out 5 albums. Their fifth release, Palomino, has maintained a position in the Top 10 on the Billboard bluegrass charts for 52 straight weeks. Their newest album, Stars and Satellites, will be released on April 10, 2012.
I am seeing them at our local Brew Fest tonight so I'm in a Trampled mood.
Here's one for the Pixie fans
Great live energy
My personal favorite. Lyrics not necessary. If it's too slow, FF to 2:30 and go from there..
SOooo pumped to see them. I was supposed to see them in a double bill with Infamous Stringdusters but they had to cancel. Not a bad consolation prize though, String played a double set.
Thank you! I was listening to the playlist on Spotify while doing my homework and remember hearing a song that I loved and couldn't remember what it was. This was it. There is just something magical when a violin becomes a fiddle and a guitar becomes a banjo.
To be honest i am not really in to the whole bluegrass scene. However, after hearing this and going through their discography, definitely on my top 10 must sees this year. Pretty pumped for it
When the lineup came out and I started going through the bands I didn't know - these guys were ones that really stood out to me and I've downloaded some of their stuff. Can't wait to see them there now and for the new album! I love seeing the little vingettes that are posted on their FB feed.

Had never heard of these guys before I saw their name on the Bonnaroo lineup. Decided to check them out on Spotify because they had such a funny name, and man this music is addictive!!
Just finished. That is one hell of an album. Normally I'm not the biggest fan of recorded bluegrass but that is the way its supposed to be done. Top 5 of the year so far no question
