This is real music and solid musicians. Grass roots good times. Keep on pickin' boys!

I have no idea how I stumbled on this, but I'm sure glad I did! It absolutely made my day. Incredible musicianship with heart and soul... Thank you for sharing this performance, I'm a fan! ❤️🎶🎻

That is some seasoned bluegrass playin’ 👏🏽👏🏽 thanks for sharing

Hoddam boys, mighty fine pickin, enjoyed it!

I love you hearing playing. I am Dutch, play squeeze box , wished you lived in my neighbourhood,=.... great, thank you

This whole band is great but I really dug the guitar player’s choices on his solos.

Listing all the way from the Netherlands (Holland) great music! Great musicians! 👍👍

Front Porch Bluegrass sounds great.

Over the years I've put on 19 bluegrass festivals, and I'd hire that band in a heartbeat. Craig is one of the best bass players I have ever heard.

Fine Fine Fine! Kind Thanks! DaveyJO in Pennsylvania

Cotton picking great stuff boys..from a sweltering hot, ye old'e England summer 2022...thank you..🇬🇧👍

Such lucky neighbors to live near this porch. Love it!

Boys, I wish I could of been there !

Those pull offs at 19:23 were insane! Absolutely amazing playing by everyone there!

I have to do a road trip to North Carolina! I would make the trip just to see you guys. I'm subscribed 😁👍 We love Bluegrass in Wisconsin. I miss the Great Northern Bluegrass Festival (Mole Lake reservation)

These people know just exactly what those instruments are for Great job

I'm gonna keep listening, but you sold me with Big River. I never heard it in a bluegrass form and when the harmony kicked it ain't gonna lie gave me a chill. One of my favorite songs, and y'all did it justice.

Gotta love Woody! he can do no wrong. Great band here.

Savage cabbage that banjo hup hup from Ireland 🇮🇪

Great musicians and great bluegrass sound. Keep playing together.

Thank you for kind words, Al. The players are listed in the description. We're all from Asheville NC (now).

Bluegrass at it's most rapturous.

Amazing talent. Not sold on the excess of obligatory bass solos though👀

@cameronb76 Ordinarily, I'd agree with you. One bass solo a night is enough for me, thank you. But Craig has changed my view on that. His solos are crowd favorites. We all love to just stop and listen to him play. In this band, we pass around everything. If you want a break, you'll get one. I think he's earned every one, and then some.

We're essentially a pickup band. Every week is different. The players are named in the description of each video.

hola

U all sound better after you took that Midol

Problem with bass solos is once you let them solo, they want to solo on every song! 🙄

Y'all got anything to smoke ?🙄

You guys need a girlfriend,, not the same one tho 😬
