So...I was driving home 300 miles from walking my dog (don't ask) and happened to catch a bit of music on Tribal Radio. The Yakamas aren't the most descriptive lot, so I had to hunt this up, but these kids are WELL WORTH IT!!! Perfect mix of Bluegrass/Celtic/Lyric/Music...it all seemed to fit just right. If you have the opportunity..pick it up. Won't be dissapointed. (Lighthouse Tale was spectacular as well)

First heard them at Winfield years ago, when they were all pre-teens. At that time they did cowboy/western music. Since then they've improved musically and expanded their repertoire quite a bit. They were at Winfield last year, I believe. To check this years line-up, go to www.wvfest.com.

For anyone in the Upper Midwest, Nickel Creek will be at the Sioux River Folk Festival at Newton Hills State Park near Canton, South Dakota on August 4-6, 2000. They were here at the Fest a couple of years ago, and these kids are _amazing_. The headline act was Balfa Toujours, but the final set, billed as a Balfa set, was really the two bands combined, ripping into a selection of Cajun and bluegrass music like you wouldn't believe.

Trust me. JenEllen's right. Don't pass up a chance to see this band.
