Description

Live from Lyons, CO, we planted ourselves in the heart of RockyGrass to chat with the absolute barn-burners of Cane Mill Road—and folks, these boys didn’t just blow the roof off… they power-washed it, repainted it Hi-Viz yellow, slapped a dome-swap hat on it, and then crowd-surfed it into the next county. 🧢⚡

We dive headfirst into the glorious chaos, covering everything from viral Wook Fame (yep, Costco run-ins and airport “chair guy” sightings included) to their Halloween plan of dressing as Béla Fleck & the New Grass Revival—full Japan tour regalia and all. 🎃🎶 Along the way, they share:

  • Liam’s wholesome Doc Watson–inspired start in Deep Gap, NC 🎸
  • Why East Tennessee State might secretly be the Hogwarts of Bluegrass 🪄🪕
  • How not rehearsing (but living together) can make you tighter than a fresh banjo head 🥁
  • Easter eggs in their live sets, from Ozzy riffs to Allman Brothers jams 🤘🍑
  • The importance of listening—both musically and when your bandmate signals “time to shred” with a lick 🎯
  • And the ongoing mystery of their missing guitarist, possibly lost in a Google Drive folder 📂🔍

We get into their recording process—part studio wizardry, part “jam it till it sticks”—and why the next album is shaping up to sound as unhinged (in the best way) as their live shows. Spoiler: there’s still one last banjo part to record, but 40 days on the road might just delay that… thanks to side quests, camping chaos, and occasional Boy Scout flashbacks. ⛺🔥

Whether you’re a diehard jamgrass junkie, a casual festival hopper, or just here for the Bears–Packers trash talk 🏈💥, this one will have you grinning like a mandolin player with perfect fret buzz.

🚐 Tour’s just starting. Energy’s high. Socks are questionable. 📀 New album coming… as soon as they stop making the crowd lose its collective mind.
