Yonder Mountain String Band is acoustic music at its finest. The band has great songs, and their singing and playing is inspired. I really can’t say enough nice things about this band. I can say that we saw another terrific performance from the Boulder quartet last night at a sweet club in Charlotte, NC.

“Peace of Mind” to close the first set was outstanding, as was “Dawn’s Early Light” in the second. And “Crazy Train” near the ned of the show was delightful and hilarious, all at once.
