The 23 String Band Concert History

Hailing from all around Kentucky, The 23 String Band pays homage to the deep roots of American traditional music, while pushing forward with genre-bending, hard-driving originals and distinctive arrangements. Their youthful brand of “original hillbilly music” weaves in and out of old-time, bluegrass, acoustic roots, and anything else that strikes their fancy—it’s not uncommon to hear a Beastie Boys cover by these boys. It's a contagious conglomeration that's entertaining, energetic, and will get you on your feet and dancing every time!...
