Down On 5th - "not your father's bluegrass" - Video
PUBLISHED:  Aug 10, 2010
DESCRIPTION:
Upcoming documentary of a progressive bluegrass band from Kentucky.

Touting their style as "Not your father's bluegrass," the veteran group of bluegrass musicians that make up "Down on 5th" don't hesitate to disclose their aim: creating progressive bluegrass music, utilizing traditional elements of the form and pushing forward with a unique sound all their own.

The group features Joe Larson on banjo, bassist Kelsie Westfall on bass, guitarist Marke Richardson, mandolin player Dennis Haycraft and fiddle player JB Miller.

With an innovative approach to harmonizing vocals and re-arranging everything from classic bluegrass tunes like "Down the Road" to the Impressions' soulful song "People Get Ready," the group's talents move beyond form and into the realm of experienced imagination.

As the group mentions, "This is bluegrass to the extreme."
