They are seasoned and dynamic, never failing to thrill their audience with instrumental dexterity and speed, tight harmonies, and the fun they obviously have on stage. Ever growing and evolving, the Steep Canyon Rangers keep things interesting by performing at an eclectic mix of venues ranging from NY’s Carnegie Hall to a stand up rock clubs; jam band festivals to traditional bluegrass festivals. They tour between 125 and 150 dates per year, typically splitting their schedule between their own shows and sharing the stage with actor/comedian and respected banjo player Steve Martin and, more recently, with Steve and Edie Brickell. The Grammy winning American bluegrass band, the Steep Canyon Rangers respect bluegrass traditions but are not constrained by its conventions and the result is powerful music with wide-ranging appeal. Join us this Labor Day Weekend as we celebrate HarborFest 2016 with some of the finest bluegrass in the land. Artist website: steepcanyon.com
