Punch BrothersA pinch and a punch for the first of the month...The return of Punch Brothers, fronted by virtuoso mandolinist/composer/singer and Grammy winning Nickel Creek-er Chris Thile. Thile on mandolin and vocals is joined by Gabe Witcher (Willie Nelson, Randy Newman, Beck, Jerry Douglas) on fiddle, Chris Eldridge (Infamous Stringdusters) on guitar, Noam Pickelny (Leftover Salmon) on banjo, and bassist Paul Kowert. Collecting five singular abilities and viewpoints into one musical force, Punch Brothers have established their place among the most dynamic and talented presences across the full range of contemporary music-making. As performing and recording artists, composers and interpreters, technicians and stylists, they continue to push the boundaries of possibility while maintaining an unerring devotion to the basic audience experience. These guys love playing The Cedar room; we love having 'em!

The group has reportedly been working on the follow-up album to The Blind Leading the Blind, so you can expect plenty of new tunes!
