signewtone a'them Bluegrass bands recently introduced by a buddy
gonna have to look into more of his stuff
"Meet me at the Creek"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?...yQk&feature=youtu.bea bit as if Bluegrass and Grateful Dead and Metallica had a baby & named it Billy Strings.
Some of the middle portion sounds a bit like old sitar riffs but with banjo & fiddle...etc.

lymanif you like Bluegrass, and the Dead,
try some of Dave Grisman's stuff,
he did a few albums with Garcia,
and his Dawg Music is fantastic,
most if all available from Acoustic Discs

A good album for that is
The Pizza Tapes, which was literally a taped kitchen jam session with Garcia, Grisman, and Tony Rice.

ChanceThe band that contained Grisman and Garcia was called "Old and in the Way". Fantastic albums.
And sorry, but the Pizza tapes were not recorded in a kitchen. The sessions were recorded in Grisman's studio. The tapes were stolen by a pizza delivery person.

And Vassar Clements on fiddle. I was fortunate to catch them live at several bluegrass festivals in Northern VA, shortly after they formed the group in 1973.

They are good, but could use some aging/experience. The guitar player is a decent flatpicker, good even. We never got to hear the banjo take a break, and could easily have done away with the mandolin's break, which was weak. All in all, a good bluegrass performance.

lymanyall are good,
normally mentioning Dave Grisman results in crickets or a blank stare, ,
he is still touring (Saw him last year or so in Hopewell) playing Dawg Music,
excellent stuff
