Hey Jason
Do a search on Google for Kruger Brothers - they have a few samples on their web site.
My wife and I stumbled on them after going to a little bluegrass festival in NC, not far from where they live, and they're the biggest reason we're going back to that festival again Memorial Day weekend. They're transplants from Switzerland, of all places. One plays guitar and sings, and to say the other plays banjo is doing him an injustice. He's actually been working on a bluegrass symphony that is reminiscent of something between Aaron Copeland, Pat Metheny, and Chet Atkins.
You'll also find a few videos of them in performance on YouTube.
Remind me before Bel Air and I'll bring a CD of theirs.

Jason....have I got a band for you!!!
Actually, some of the metal heads might appreciate these following guys...
There's this band from Nashville called The Legendary Shack Shakers, that I have seen play at Asbury Lanes in Asbury park NJ several times. I cant fully describe what they are like, you have to visit their website to read about them. They are a Southern Gothic/Punk/Bluegrass/Alternative/Blues Band....lol.
You want energy? You got it. There live show is to be seen, and they are not so big that you cant catch one of their shows.
Here is an excerpt from their myspace page....
****************
The Legendary Shack Shakers' hell-for-leather roadshow has earned quite a name for itself with its unique brand of Southern Gothic that is all-at-once irreverent, revisionist, dangerous, and fun. Led by their wildly charismatic, rail-thin frontman/blues-harpist, J.D. Wilkes, the Shack Shakers are a four-man wrecking crew from the South whose explosive interpretations of the blues, punk, rock and country have made fans, critics and legions of potential converts into true believers. With the recent addition of former Jesus Lizard guitarist Duane Denison (Hank III/Tomahawk) and drumming wunderkind, Brett Whitacre, the Legendary Shack Shakers have quickly become known for providing some of the best entertainment (live or otherwise) that you can get for your hard earned money.
*****************
I've heard this band play punk, blues, country, hillbilly, and polka music!
The bands official website is
http://www.cockadoodledont.com/
Their best CD so far, has been Swampblood I think.
There is music samples on the website, as well as
www.myspace.com/legendaryshackshakers
enjoy.....

I like all kinds of music with Bluegrass being one of my favorites. Best Bluegrass group for my money is " IIIrd Tyme Out " . These guys are three time Bluegrass group of the year. Check out their web site & order some great music...you won't be sorry.
