Why You Should Go: As one quarter of the Bluegrass powerhouse, Yonder Mountain String Band, Austin has refined his mandolin playing skills over many years of touring. When not on the road with YMSB he frequently puts together a small collective of friends known as Jeff Austin and Friends for a series of local shows where he gets to pick with friends that he doesn’t often play with. Previous friends have included Billy Nershi (of SCI), Larry Keel, and Danny Barnes. This time around Austin has announced that Nick Forester (of Hot Rize) and frequent collaborator bassist Eric Thorin will be joining him on stage. As always the door is wide open to other guests and you never know who might show up to jam.
As you might expect the sets will be jam packed with fast paced bluegrass. While Austin will likely bust out a few chestnuts from the YMSB catalog, he also features his collaborators original tunes and often several crowd pleasing cover tunes. Let the dancing begin!
