Bluegrass had never really been prominent on my musical spectrum. I always appreciated it and had great respect for its sustainability as a purely musical (and not effects or production-driven) realm in an increasingly tech-driven world. But when mixing blues with anything, I generally gravitated more towards rock rather than country.
Enter The Brothers Comatose. They've been playing around San Francisco lately, and I'd recommend the show to even non-bluegrass fans. The band is comprised of wildly talented and precise musicians dressed in rock stars' clothing. While the music is beautiful, the boys retain a raw and rugged cool in both their music and their persona that makes for an engaging and sexy stage presence. I'd never seen anyone rock out on a violin or a standing bass. It's a pretty awesome thing to see. With catchy harmonizing and foot stomping jams, these boys know how to shake up a room.
