Leftover Salmon

With nontraditional instrumentation, these architects of jamgrass create their own weirdly unique style.

If you want to understand what Americana music is, come to a Leftover Salmon show, where these superbly talented musicians effortlessly glide from a bluegrass number born on the front porch to the down-and-dirty Cajun swamps, with stops at New Orleans’ Bourbon Street and the hallowed halls of Nashville's Ryman Auditorium along the way, before finally landing in the mountains of Colorado.

Since their earliest days as a forward-thinking, progressive bluegrass band with the guts to add drums to the mix, the members of Leftover Salmon have long been unafraid to stir in any number of highly combustible styles into their ever-evolving sound. From their role as pioneers of the modern jamband scene to their current status as elder statesmen, who cast an influential shadow over every festival they play, the band members have helped keep traditional music alive while also pushing it into new psychedelic directions.
