Leftover Salmon – Grass Roots [CD]

Known for their exhilarating live shows and musicianship as well as their eclectic musical tastes, Leftover Salmon has been one of Colorado’s most beloved musical exports, picking up where bands like Little Feat, the Band and The Grateful Dead left off and distilling it into their own potent brew of bluegrass, rock ‘n’ roll, folk, Cajun, soul, zydeco and jazz and blues. As Tim Newby, author of Leftover Salmon: Thirty Years of Festival!, wrote “When listening to Leftover Salmon it is easy to draw a line that runs straight from Bill Monroe to John Hartford to the Grateful Dead to Hot Rize to Little Feat to New Grass Revival to Col. Bruce Hampton and end with Leftover Salmon.” GRASS ROOTS showcases a different side of Leftover Salmon. Presenting a series of covers from some of music’s most influential voices including the likes of Bob Dylan, Link Wray, David Bromberg, and more. Featuring guest appearances from Billy Strings, Oliver Wood, and Darol Anger.
