Greensky Bluegrass/Billy Strings

The last couple of records have really shown off Greensky Bluegrass' ability to work well in a recording studio. Along the way, the group has gotten a little help from its musical friends, and that's paid dividends. Los Lobos' Steve Berlin produced 2016's Shouted, Written Down & Quoted. The group then turned to Dominic John Davis for its most recent album, All For Money, and the experience was just as rewarding. The album opens with the moody "Do It Alone," a song that benefits from its bellowing vocals and atmospheric interludes. More than other bluegrass acts, these guys tend to rock out when they play live, and that should make for an invigorating show. (Niesel)
