Based in San Francisco, California, the band has developed a reputation for their high-energy performances, heartfelt songwriting, and impressive musicianship. Brothers Ben and Alex Morrison founded the band in 2008. Shortly thereafter they added the unique talents of classically-trained violinist Philip Brezina and steadfast bassist Steve Height to the lineup.

Their songwriting, with its emphasis on strong storytelling, gives a modern, West Coast twist to their particular brand of bluegrass. Their songs often delve into themes of love, loss, adventure, and the human experience, all while maintaining an upbeat, rollicking energy that keeps fans coming back for more.

Latest Addition

In 2024, the band welcomed the final piece of the puzzle, multi-instrumentalist Addie Levy into the fold, adding a new layer of depth and dynamic to their sound and their live show.
