Sunday Bluegrass: Greensky Bluegrass

Words By J-man

There is something about Greensky that I have always enjoyed. It could be the melodies, or the combination of traditional songs with a jam approach. It's been exciting to watch GSBG not only step outside of Michigan, but tour all over the country. More and more festivals are seeking this soon to be staple on the scene. Their sets are often littered with train songs, gospel tunes, and Dead jams; so I thought "Who better for our Sunday Bluegrass than Greensky?"

  1. I totally agree, J-Man. I've always been a fan of great bluegrass (from my Kentucky Grandparents), but when we met these guys 5-6 years ago - well, it's kind of been all over for us.

    Greensky Bluegrass will hook you, and you won't even realize it. It's a great ride!!
