  • I thought if you had that much talent in such a confined space it reached critical mass and exploded. I am So jealous!

  • @acefiddle Your ear just isn't trained correctly... Think of a piano. If you're in the key of C, every black key is only ever one half step away from a "right" note.

    Break out of your bluegrass shackles and come over to the jazz side... listen to some bebop with guys like Charlie Parker or Dizzy Gillespie.

  • @acefiddle New Grass Revival was the originator of bluegrass fusion, so to speak, but plenty of other very talented artists have jumped in and are broadening it as well.

    I heard Victor Wooten from Bela Fleck and the Flecktones say one time that the most important scale is actually the chromatic scale, and these guys certainly use it.

    And I agree that it always isn't the most melodic (that's the definition of dissonant, right?) but when you're expecting those other notes, it has its own beauty

  • @PointSpecial09 OK, i guess you could be right cause it does not sound right. Only I thought new grass revival played jazzgrass and they sound just fine to me. I am stuck on the old traditional stuff i guess. I didnt mean any disrespect to these folks.

  • Why don't they all play the same song?

  • You gotta love Mark Shatz in the background...just keeping the baseline

  • i have to agree with banjo billy, too many DISTASTEFUL notes. LET the music breath!! dissonance has a place, yes but use it tastefully!

  • What no cowbell?

  • That is probably the closest thing I can call a "once in a life" you experience

  • WOW .. I THINK THEY PRACTICE A LOT.. MY FINGERS WOULD FALL FREAKIN' off IF I TRIED THAT...
