Leftover Salmon

“Fun and hopeful, with elements of bluegrass, country, rock, and jazz originally woven together, recalling classic Grateful Dead.” — No Depression

From their earliest days as a progressive bluegrass band who had the guts to add drums to the mix to their role as pioneers of the modern jam band scene, Leftover Salmon has been a crucial link in keeping alive the traditional music of the past while simultaneously pushing that sound forward.

Architects of what has widely become known as jamgrass, the band helped create a landscape where musicians schooled in the traditional rules of bluegrass could break free of those bonds and push their tunes in psychedelic directions.

Thirty-five years into their storied career, Leftover Salmon are still reaching for new sounds and staying true to their motto: “Live rowdy, live loudly, stay up late. Make friends, make peace, make music.”
