| • | The Yonder Mountain String Band (YMSB) is a progressive bluegrass group from Nederland, Colorado, outside Boulder. Formed in the fall of 1998, the band performed mainly in the Colorado - Illinois area. They expanded their touring region to across the country, and by the summer of 2003 they visited Europe. Jeff Austin picked up the mandolin only a few years before forming YMSB. He will often break into a freeform skat during a song. Ben Kaufmann's ability to write songs has formed a solid foundation on which the band's repertoire has grown steadily since 1998. Among his earlier compositions are, "The Bolton Stretch" (Elevation), "On The Run" (Elevation), and the epic live song "Traffic Jam" (Mtn. Tracks Vol 3). Dave Johnston forms a great deal of the band's overall sound with his banjo, which essentially serves as Yonder's percussion. He sings in a low tone. Of all the members, Dave has contributed the most instrumentals, with Adam second. Jeff and Ben have put words to all of their songs. Adam Aijala's guitar playing forms a framework for many of YMSB's songs. One of Adam's most well-known songs, written back in the days of Elevation, is "Left Me In A Hole." The Yonder Mountain String Band is to be found in archive.org's list over trade-friendly bands. Source: [wikipedia: yonder mountain string band] |
