Rollicking twin fiddles and bright country harmonies define the Mercury Dimes, a band of veteran musicians that emerged amid the late-20th-century explosion of acoustic old-time and bluegrass music in San Francisco. The Mercury Dimes were originally conceived as a touring band, and have traveled as far away as France to perform their seductive mix of Appalachian fiddle tunes, old-time ballads, and country blues.
The Dimes are now a musical consortium, with Knoth and Engelberg acting as the core members. Knoth's and Engelberg's contacts in the bluegrass and old-time communities ensure that whether you need a duo or a crazy 6 piece bluegrass band, you'll get the very best talent available.
The Mercury Dimes are still available to enliven your wedding, square dance, coffee house, street fair, party, festival, corporate event, or rock club.
