BELLE MONROE & HER BREWGLASS BOYS (SF)
Belle & the Boys have been laying it on the line for Bay Area bluegrass lovers since 1995. While the band has a great appreciation for traditional bluegrass music, they don't quite play it straight; they inject a bit of blues, a smidgen of swing, and a whole lot of fun and frenetic energy. Their repertoire includes original bluegrass and versions of popular classics that are distinctively ‘Brewglass’. "Whether live or on CD, Belle Monroe and her Brewglass Boys are not just another Bill Monroe camp meeting, and that's a good thing. A very good thing."-Hicks with Sticks
Belle Monroe (Pam Brandon) leads the group with her powerful and sultry vocals and steady rhythm guitar playing. Ted Silverman plays mandolin, sings lead and harmony vocals, and writes many of the band’s original songs. Jordan Klein lights up the 5-string banjo, and also sings lead and harmony vocals. Tom Drohan’s strong thumping bass gives the group its distinctive Brewglass drive. Will Fourt on dobro and vocals. Rounding out the band is Diana Greenberg, the prettiest Brewglass ‘boy’, shredding on the fiddle.

GRATEFUL BLUEGRASS BOYS (Bay Area)
Grateful Bluegrass Boys is a string band that plays traditional Bluegrass versions of classic rock favorites from bands such as the Grateful Dead, Bob Dylan, Van Morrison, The Eagles, Rolling Stones and more. These songs, combined with classic bluegrass and country tunes, consistently have audiences singing and dancing along the whole show.
The band consists of Aaron Redner (fiddle, mandolin, vocals) who is known for his work with Hot Buttered Rum with whom he toured for 13 years. David Thom (mandolin, guitar, vocals) who sings like an angel also fronts David Thom Band and Vintage Grass, He also spent two years working for David ‘Dawg’ Grisman. Isaac Cantor (banjo) also plays in Dusty Green Bones Band. He is one of the finest young jam-jo pickers on the scene today. Ben Jacobs (accordion) can be seen with Poor Man's Whiskey and Rusty Stringfield. Ben is a highly sought-after keyboard player and we are honored to have him play with us!
And sitting in on bass tonight will be none other than Pam Brandon of Belle Monroe & her Brewglass Boys.

ONE GRASS TWO GRASS (Oakland)
One of the Bay Area's freshest new bands, One Grass Two Grass are fast becoming one of the most popular bluegrass outfits around. They deliver high energy, hard driving, fun loving, old-timey, new-timey, good-timey, California stringband music. Through richly lyrical, naturally inspired originals cushioned by a bed of old mountain tunes and the occasional stomping classic rock number, their unique sound is expressed as a mesh of yesterdays established protocols with the need to bring strings to the times in their own exciting way.
Standing on the shoulders of the contemporary movement powered by Old Crow Medicine Show and The Hackensaw Boys, One Grass Two Grass forge their own style of “folk meets old-time meets rock meets bluegrass” craze.
