BILLY STRINGS delivers EXTREME American string band music with energy levels usually associated with a box of dynamite.

He has been invited to play on stage with Del McCoury, David Grisman, Larry Keel, Sam Bush, Greensky Bluegrass, The Infamous Stringdusters, Leftover Salmon and more. He also just won IBMA 2016 Momentum Awards Instrumentalist of the Year for guitar, banjo and mandolin and was voted #1 in, scene tastemaker, Bluegrass Situation’s Top 16 of ’16. His latest ’Turmoil & Tinfoil.’
WHISKEY SHIVERS is a masterfully talented string band known for raucous live shows based out of Austin, Texas. The band have made a name for themselves with a genre-pushing sound that the Washington Post called "apocalyptic Americana." NPR described them as "frenetic bluegrass" with a "punk spirit.” The band members also just wrapped shooting for their role in the upcoming film 'Pitch Perfect 3,' It might sound strange for a bluegrass band, but the big screen is the perfect place for Whiskey Shivers, who had their first major breakout when their horror-movie influenced music video went viral after ending up on the top of Reddit's front page. The band’s new album is ‘Some Part of Something.’
