You do not want to miss this dynamic three piece on Sunday, March 1.  Many of you may have seen them at our Backyard BBQ where they definitely whipped the crowd into a frenzy with their bluegrass crossed with Slayer music.
They play two sets – the first 12:30 – 1:15 and then again 2:15 to 3:00.

From their bio –

They happily and improbably took the spirit and musical inventiveness of the Stanley Brothers, John Zorn, hell, even Rush, and came up with something definitively SPLIT LIP RAYFIELD. There will never be another band or sound like them. There couldn’t be. Like so many ground breaking and insanely original bands before them, it may take the world another 25 years to catch on. Our loss. They almost single-handedly invented “thrashgrass” and countless bands owe them a huge debt for not only defining a sound, but stretching the possibilities of the acoustic music world.  Fans of the Flatt & Scruggs AND Metallica could find a common tent to party under.

We’ll see you in the front row on Sunday!
