Good on em.
Bluegrass rocked before rock, rocked!
I got hooked on Bluegrass a few years ago, but my local group has not been able to jam together for almost a year now. I’ve only been able to attend a couple of outdoor jams at a nearby county park. It’s great to see the younguns get into the bluegrass scene.
One of the hottest Bluegrass entertainers right now is Billy Strings. Plenty of youtube concerts. Enjoy
How cool. With that level of talent they can always have some sort of side gig.
A friend of mine paid her way through college in a chamber music group she was in.
Her husband moved a lot for work. Wherever they went she’d pick up a couple students.
She taught my daughter in exchange for babysitting.
Great story!
I love that these youngsters are moved by old-time, classic American music.
The woman sounds like an amazing teacher.
The Watson name has some cred
These kids are inspiring....

Nice story.
This writer needs to learn how to proofread, however.
While they’ve all done growed up now, when Nickel Creek was formed they were all pretty much just kids as well. Chris Thile has gone on to become a world-class mandolin player, who has done some interesting things bridging bluegrass and classical. In recent years he’s done albums with Edgar Meyer, Yo Yo Ma, and others.
I’m a big fan of the crossover of some of these guys from the classical world into bluegrass and related forms.
White privilege music.
