JamGrass / Americana

 

This is the best of many worlds:  Bluegrass, Old Country, Grateful Dead and Americana. Electric Bass is welcome, but all other instruments need/should to be Acoustic. Cajon and Melodica are welcome!  

 

For those that don't know, there is ton of history of overlap between Jam Bands and Bluegrass. Both the Grateful Dead and Phish played bluegrass songs at their concerts.  In fact, when Phish came to Atlanta in the 90s, they ask Cedar Hill to open for them! These songs may be slightly more complex, but jump in and learn them with the group. 

 

Near the end of each meeting, the group plays "Drink Up and Go Home" by Garcia & Grisman so work on that one for sure!
