The Steep Canyon Rangers are one of the most creative bluegrass bands that have come down the pike in the last decade. And Steve Martin is not a novelty act...he's a world class banjo player.
Thanks for sharing.
Our albums and singles are on Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, YouTube Music, Pandora and more. If interested search on Janice Merritt. Thanks! Our Videos

Steep Canyon Rangers are a Carolina band (Brevard), so its no surprise they frequently play at Merlefest. It is my understanding that Steve Martin frequently performs with that band, but I've never seen them together at the Wilkesboro festival. .
Maybe since he just collaborated on their new album he'll be with them at Merlefest 2018 to promote the CD?
Thanks for the link, Floyd!

Great music.
Thanx for sharing.
Back in my day the only time we started panic buying was when the bartender shouted "last call"!

Just wanted to reiterate;
Steve Martin is a serious banjo talent .. the rest of this band is no slouch either, but SM's unknown talent in this regard is pretty notable
Glad to see someone else took note!
I do not work here, but the benefits are still awesome

With regards to his talent, he's definitely not "getting small".

or is he? .. maybe that's the secret to his success .. <grin>
// "they can't just put you in a regular cell either, cause you'll walk right out" ..
(I think that's the final line of that 'get small' bit, though it is faded on the concert recording), classic SM
He's truly an amazing talent. To OP, thanks; this brought back fun memories.
