Rocky Mountain Bluegrass

About Me

.........."the sparse......pure sound of rocks..........gravel............and thistleweed spins from this organic batch.......... as they sing with gentle, colorado manliness................... and pluck out the explorations of their minds.................. i got tackled by the rumbling bass.............. tickled by the flowers of guitar..........sliced by the tall grass-blade of mandolin.........and haunt-soothed by the gruff voice that lured me................... then.............i slipped into the SLIPSTREAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Rushad Eggleston of Crooked Still------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------ --------------------------------------- Slipstream's critically acclaimed album Waterbound features the ethereal cello of Rushad Eggleston, the intergalactic banjo of Noam Pikelny, the fiery fiddle and vocals of Jeremy Garrett, the way-too-tasty bouzuki, mandola and vocals of Ben Winship, and the sweet, sugar drenched voice of Erin Coats....................................................... ............................................................ ............................................................ ........................................Slipstream! Where Old-time collides with modern acoustic music! ............................................................ .................................................. think..... Doc Boggs meets Jack Johnson....... Riley Pucket does a backward flip over the head of Chris Thile .... Maybelle Carter punches Mike Doughty .... Leadbelly wrestles with The Shins ..... The Skillet Lickers talk life with Ben Lee .....Coldplay wonders about the meaning of Dead Man as they consume Coffee and Cigerettes with Radiohead..... the Carolina Tarheels stomp around the Crooked Still and drink all of their moonshine!!!
