Steep Canyon Rangers
« on: January 26, 2013, 09:44:06 AM »
Saw their show last night - they were AWESOME!!!!!!!  This was the second time I saw them - we got to see a show last summer in MT and Steve Martin was with them.  The show last night was basically all play and very little talk - they introduced the tunes and then rocked!!!!!  Played for about an hour and 1/2.

Such great vocal harmonies and they don't just get up there and play the Bluegrass standards.  Their originals are so good and lyrics are so funny at times and well, their rendition of the Orange Blossom Special is a special treat with Nicky Sanders on the fiddle.

I think it's great that Steve Martin has won more Grammy Awards for his banjo playing than he did for his comedy. People are usually pretty surprised to learn that.
