NCG Buzz:
"From up in Flint, Mich., comes New County Grass, a four-piece band that shows much skill and energy as it looks to the bluegrass music from the late 1970s on back for its inspiration and material..."-- Bluegrass Unlimited (full CD review HERE)
"The vibe throughout is highly reminiscent of the guitar and banjo driven sound of the many The Bluegrass Album Band records, from whom they obviously look for inspiration. These guys can really play bluegrass, and it will be exciting to hear what they do over the next few years."-- John Lawless of Bluegrass Today (full article Here)
"New County Grass brought one of the most eclectic blends of modern and traditional Bluegrass to take the stage at the Jamboree in the past 2 years! The great vocals of Duane and Kyle Estep along with Dean DuBois were fantastic! Not to mention their top-notch hard driving pickin’. They have set a new benchmark that will be hard to surpass among those on the circuit anywhere this side of the Mississippi!"-- Dave Heath of The Wheeling Jamboree
"NCG first came to my attention on the "Bluegrass Blog." Soon thereafter, I heard "Start the Whole Thing Over," an impressive and pleasing project of traditional bluegrass. Vocals are heartfelt. Harmonies are tight and musicianship is first-rate. These boys know how to pick and they will definitely be on my playlist."-- Bob Mitchell, DJ at WKWC-FM
"How much quality can one Bluegrass band pack into a single CD album? The answer in the case of New County Grass is a 'gi-normous' amount. The first time I played the New County Grass CD entitled "Start the Whole Thing Over" in my study, I about fell out of my chair. These four fellers crank it up on the first tune and barely give the listener time to catch his/her emotional breathe before they are onto the next song. In sum, I am pleased and proud to acknowledge that the New County Grass Band is from Michigan and has played on the MBMA stage on numerous occasions, I will be singing their praises as I go out into the Bluegrass community, and I suspect that you will too once you hear them."-- Tim Little, Editor of the Michigan Bluegrass Music Newsletter
