JazzGrass
Toe-tappin’ Bluegrass meets Soulful Americana.
About The band
JazzGrass fuses barn-burning string traditions with jazz harmony and improvisation.
Formed in 1999 by pianist Barnaby Finch after hearing Telluride’s legendary “Strength In Numbers.” The band delivers toe-tappin’ bluegrass, Appalachian roots, and soulful swing in a single set.
Featuring:
- Lily McCabe – fiddle / vocals
- Don Reed – mandolin, dobro, guitar
- Jeremie Levi – French virtuoso fiddler
- Bill Saitta (boom) – bass anchor of Coachella Valley
- Jeff Olson (chick) – first-call SoCal drummer
- Bob Hamilton – seasoned studio guitarist
Together, they honor writers like Jerry Douglas, Béla Fleck, Pat Metheny, Dave Grusin, and the Allman Brothers plus originals by Barnaby Finch himself.
