Idk if this is technically bluegrass, but if you liked Mandolin Orange I think you could appreciate the cover.

Btw... @neversickanymore has some pretty legit bluegrass chops
im sure he has some killer recommendations

I'm so glad they have resonated with you ! It's a joyful thing discovering a new band that speaks to you so deeply.

Some good stuff in here, but list is bunk without some John Hartford

What I’ll also say, is that if you’re a bluegrass fan and like mountains and fun, do yourself a favor and go to telluride bluegrass fest sometime. Just an incredible experience.

I like this thread and will post some more stuff later.

Billy Strings is an amazing talent. If I have one gripe it would be that I wish he would stick to more traditional stuff than getting into “jam grass”. Don’t get me wrong, I enjoy jam grass, but prefer more traditional bluegrass. The kid is definitely a ridiculous player, though. One of the best out there.
