BAND BIOS:
Fireside Collective has been on a roll since emerging seven years ago from the fertile roots music scene of Asheville, North Carolina. In quick order, the progressive bluegrass group released its debut album, won the 2016 Band Contest at MerleFest, earned an International Bluegrass Music Association Momentum Band of the Year nomination, and embarked on an ambitious touring schedule that’s earned an enthusiastic reception from traditional bluegrass to wide-ranging, eclectic music festival audiences alike.
Blending the characteristic interplay of bluegrass instrumentation and harmonies with strong original material and exuberant energy, Fireside Collective has drawn on folk, blues, funk, and a wide variety of bluegrass sounds to create a distinctive body of work that’s all their own.
The Dirty Grass Players: With a nod to the past and a glance to the future, The Dirty Grass Players are keeping alive the long history of bluegrass while pushing the traditional genre into the next generation.
The Dirty Grass Players are an energetic explosion of old-time pickin’, colored with an inventive, newgrass hand that is given lyrical life by their soaring vocal harmonies that exist on an ethereal plane. They live at the crossroads between the traditional, which is the backbone of what they do, and the progressive, with their innovative, forward-thinking approach. The Dirty Grass Players, with their steady, workman-like precision and loose adventurous spirit, are a band that could both confound Bill Monroe and cause him to smile uncontrollably. Their music is progressive, traditional, experimental, imaginative, and at its core, Dirty.
