They are the band that puts the wildcat guitar in the jazzgrass, the electric mandolin in the country-reggae, the three-part harmony in the zydeco-folk, and the contrapuntal bass in the jump-blues jamboree. It’s the Mighty Pines, the butt-kickingest band in Americana that has made national splashes by way of the Telluride Bluegrass Festival, NBC’s The Voice, collaborations with the legendary Michael McDonald, and their own booming roots-music festival, Pines Fest.
The St. Louis-based Mighty Pines have barnstormed the country with their almighty musicality, gorgeous ambrosial melodies, pass-the-chillum string shredding, consciousness-expanding grassedelica, and electric roots-rock fire. Nobody brings it live like the Pines, as the quartet continues to wow audiences by bringing their superb original material to life with daredevil picking, sophisticated arrangements, and aorta-exploding melodic charge.
Come get high and Mighty.
