Why You Should Go: Because this band is one of the Bluegrass bands touring today. Del and his sons form the core of the Del McCoury band and they are some of the most talented musicians in Bluegrass today. I am not a huge fan of the genre these days but the last time I saw Del McCoury Band at Cervantes I was blown away. The musical talent in the band is second to none and the high lonesome sound lives strong in these boys.
When Del and his band played Cervantes two years ago they took on the jam band vibe of the club head on and inprovised much of a stellar 2 hour set. They even took several requests from the audience. It was clear that night that the band was loving being on stage and they played their hearts out. This legendary band has recently won a Grammy Award and several Bluegrass Music Association honors. They are living legends and the opportunity to catch them in the intimate confines Cervantes should not be missed.

Dude, I can’t believe the free Ginblossom show at the Fox tonight isn’t the pick of the week.
I’m crushed. 🙂
