40 Gallon Still Bluegrass Band

About Me

The boys of 40 Gallon Still Bluegrass Band have been picking together since the late 90's when they began attending area bluegrass festivals together. Playing high energy traditional and original tunes in the bluegrass and old time style, 40 Gallon Still has been making a name for themselves in Colorado's front range bluegrass scene. The group blends two and three part harmonies with the traditional sound of guitar, mandolin, banjo, fiddle, and upright bass. Influenced by such artists as Old Crow Medicine Show, Bill Monroe, Larry Keel, Tony Rice, and John Hartford, the boys have a vast knowledge of past and present like-minded musicians. For a good down-home, mountain music jam, come out and experience 40 Gallon Still on a stage near you. For more information check out www.40gallonstill.com.
