Just going to unilaterally declare it right now: Mountain Grass Unit out of Birmingham, Alabama is the next big band in bluegrass. They left folks agog at the Telluride Bluegrass Festival.
All four players are lights out, but let’s start by showcasing guitarist Luke Black.
Bad ass beyond belief.
Billy Strings brings out Zach Top at Under The Big Sky Fest to play a blazing version of “Freeborn Man.” In a day of epic moments from the festival, this bluegrass guitar off might top them all.
For folks that don’t know, Top started in bluegrass.
