Biography

The Yonder Mountain String Band is one of the most popular groups in the progressive bluegrass movement, which mixes the sensibilities of neo-hippie jam bands with traditional bluegrass tunes and instrumentation. Based in the musically rich town of Nederland, Colorado, YMSB follow in the footsteps of other progressive bluegrass acts such as Bela Fleck & the Flecktones and David Grisman. Since forming in 1998, YMSB has built up a sizable underground following via a relentless touring schedule, a dazzling live show, and a communally minded philosophy that encourages live tapping, thus avoiding the need for support from conventional corporate networks.
