The current kings of bluegrass… ahem newgrass, the Yonder Mountain String Band is slated to play the House of Blues tonight (Doors 8p, Show 9p). The band’s recent release The Show marks their third consecutive album to reach number 1 on the Billboard Bluegrass Charts. The Show has also managed to crack the top 20 on the Heatseekers Chart, which shows their growing popularity and crossover appeal. I first came across the YMSB in my days chasing jambands, and it was about a year ago, Lundi Gras night to be exact, that I last saw them perform in New Orleans. Below, you’ll find a few tasty tidbits of what you can expect from tonight’s show… Fair warning, be ready for a foot-stomping, hooting-and-hollering good time!
