The Hobo Nephews Of Uncle Frank and .357 String Band at Cabooze
Milwaukee’s self-described “streetgrass” combo .357 String Band shreds like Megadeth covering Flatt & Scruggs, offering a potent and incredibly fun reminder that blistering bluegrass pickers were the original headbangers. Along with just being a blast, .357 String Band’s amped-up, punk-rock take on bluegrass is doing its part to keep American roots music from being overly NPR-ized, emphasizing the rough edges and inherent wildness of classic sounds created by rough, inherently wild people.
