I know it's not a very popular genre, but I was curious if anyone else had any interest in this style of music? If so, please share some of your favorite songs and bands.
This is In Hell I'll Be in Good Company by Dead South. I also don't mind some Iron Horse covers.

anyone like to hear the tragedy of Darth Plagueis the Wise? I thought not. It's not a story the Jedi would tell you. It's a Sith legend. Darth Plagueis was a Dark Lord of the Sith, so powerful and so wise he could use the Force to influence the midichlorians to create life... He had such a knowledge of the dark side that he could even keep the ones he cared about from dying. The dark side of the Force is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural. He became so powerful... the only thing he was afraid of was losing his power, which eventually, of course, he did. Unfortunately, he taught his apprentice everything he knew, then his apprentice killed him in his sleep. Ironic, he could save others from death, but not himself.

Edited by ImHereToHelp: 6/9/2017 3:33:26 PMI do and I've heard that song so many times now that I skip it when it comes on. Edit: Also the lack of Trampled by Turtles in here is appalling.

I'm into some new age bluegrassy bands like Trampled by Turtles.

Terrible.

Obviously you don't OP because that's not blue grass... It takes more then being a banjo playing beardo to be blue grass. Otherwise these guys would be Blue Grass..https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2CPt3eSBJiQ When the reality is that it's just twangy rock.

Sure, I have some nice Bluegrass songs on my iPod. Better than modern country music.

I love Bluegrass.

Only good bluegrass is Larry and his Flask.

Actually really dig bluegrass. Don't know a lot of artist but this kind of music always just seems so cool. I imagine slow motion western movies a lot also for some reason lol.

That song was the first thing that came to mind once I read the title. Been slowly getting into the genre.

Edited by DahcDerron: 6/8/2017 5:40:05 AMI've been playing bluegrass for 25 years now. Started with guitar, now I play banjo. I've got a couple Martins and three banjos. I actually just got home from a local jam we have every Wednesday night. A few of my favorite artists are: Flatt and Scruggs Bill Monroe Tony Rice Doc Watson J.D. Crowe Stanley Brothers Bryan Sutton Punch Brothers The video I posted is Punch Bros doing Molly and Tenbrooks, a song Monroe recorded and made popular in the late 1940s. This version is definitely worth a watch. Chris Thile is one of the best musicians on the planet! If you're just getting into the genre, you should check out The Bluegrass Album Band. They took a lot of the old classics and re-recorded them in the 1990s with a lineup of some of the best pickers around, including Rice and Crowe. They did several albums that go through a huge catalogue of old songs recorded by Flatt and Scruggs, Monroe, Stanley, and the like. Monroe basically invented the genre and Scruggs perfected the three-finger banjo style associated with bluegrass. You'd do yourself some good to familiarize yourself with them. Doc Watson pioneered playing fiddle tunes on a guitar, and Clarence White took it to the next level by adding in some jazz licks before he passed the torch to Tony Rice. There's a lot of good shit out there once you start digging.

I tend to like faster bluegrass.
