We're announcing the complete 2011 single-day lineup tomorrow morning (along with single-day tickets). The final lineup will include 4 additional artists.  Here's one of them...


Chris Thile & Michael Daves

Forget what you think you know about mandolin/guitar duets.  These 2 are on fire. 

If you're not familiar with NYC bluegrasser Michael Daves, put on your seatbelt and check this out...

Chris describes their sound: "Mandolin and guitar and two male voices—it’s such a good sound. It was important for us to get that brother duet thing, but with this Lower East Side punk energy." Giddyup.

Their debut album (recorded live to tape at Jack White's studio) will be released May 10.  They'll make their main stage debut on Friday of this year's Telluride Bluegrass.

LOVE IT!

I saw them play together a couple of weeks ago here in NYC, it was amazing, can't wait to see them together in the canyon!
