I'll be seeing this amazing band live for the second time tomorrow night with Mr. Magpie and two dear friends here in Portland. I don't think it's an exaggeration to say that I have a crush on the whole band. Lead singer and mandolinist extraordinaire Chris Thile, whom you may also know from Nickel Creek, won a MacArthur genius award this past year, and his collaboration with Yo-Yo Ma, Stuart Duncan, and Edgar Meyer led to The Goat Rodeo Sessions, a fantastic CD that just won the Grammy for Best Folk Album.
I have to admit that I was smitten from the moment I first saw Punch Brothers open for Josh Ritter a few years ago down in Boston, and I think you'll love them, too.
