    I heard this band playing live at the California Bluegrass Association Father’s Day Festival in Grass Valley this June 2024 - these musicians are really really good bluegrass musicians, singers, songwriters, all around just great musicians. They played live on KKUP 91.5 in Santa Clara tonight, Monday Night Bluegrass- wonderful to hear them!

    At a couple of points, you can really see the advantage of a fiddle player who is also a classically trained violinist. Certain musical vibes are only possible when the fiddle player can shift into "violinist mode" and produce that classical tone out of the instrument.

    Great musicality from Korea and its playing style in bluegrass. This interpretation may be more of folk genre than bluegrass. I understand the lyrics and it is not about the everyday Americana. Originated from the early 1900s starting with the Carter Family, I believe bluegrass gives the soul of Southern/Mountain people a voice. Soul of the southern white folk music. I hope they can progress into their own genre in their playing style. However, it may best be served as bluegrass Americana if they experience more of the Mountain Bluegrass and Honky Tonk Music not as notes but as lyrics. That may convey more of the true bluegrass to the public. Great job! Hope to hear them live when I am in Korea soon.
