I haven't seen these guys, but I heard that they destroyed Kirk Avenue Music Hall almost exactly a year ago. Here's the advance story we did on that show, featuring guitarist Chris "Critter" Eldridge, a founding member of the Infamous Stringdusters.

Everyone in this act is a monster player. The Village Voice called them "five wily, omnivorous bluegrass titans."
