Today's video is dedicated to a great new bluegrass band that was formed a few years ago. They are called the Punch Brothers and have opened for Dave Matthews, played with Steve Martin and performed on David Letterman as well as touring all over the US of A. My buddy Paul Kowert is the bass player for them, a former Curtis Institute of Music student as well he joined the band in 2008. Chris Thile is the lead vocalist and mandolin player, formerly of the band Nickel Creek. Gabe Witcher on the fiddle, Noam Pikelny on the banjo and Chris Eldridge on guitar. They have a really incredible album called antifogmatic that you can purchase on iTunes. My favorite song of theirs is Rye Whiskey..so here it is in a live radio recording of it. Enjoy.
