Let's try something different for today's new TBF artist...  an announcement haiku:  Rolleyes

Beatbox and banjo
from Carolinas' piedmont
with joyful vengeance

Or how about this one:

Fiddlin' jug band
Had RockyGrass enraptured
Fallin' off their seats

Or one more:

Never danced so hard
to southern stringband blues from
guitar and kazoo

If you were at 2008 RockyGrass you know exactly who I'm talking about. Their Sunday night set was the talk of the festival...


Carolina Chocolate Drops


Here's one of their many RockyGrass highlights:

And a great overview about the band:

Don't get trouble in your mind, tix go on sale on Wednesday...

Got to see them at the New Orleans Jazz Fest a few years ago.  They had an early set, which usually means scarce crowds, but apparently the word-of-mouth got around and the tent was nearly full.  These folks are very talented, very devoted to their music and really down to earth.  In other words, perfect for TBF.
