You guys really, really, need to come to North Carolina. Yall would ablsolutely kill it up here in the mountains. Folks in Asheville, Boone, etc would really dig this. (Wilmington has bluegrass scene too if you come around the coast). Great stuff guys, keep it up!
ps. Phish has yet to have a legit bluegrass band play songs, let alone create an album. You guys should think about it. After hearing yalls Shins and Modest Mouse stuff, I could definitely see yall pulling it off.
The Black Hills loves it! Hippies and pickies alike, you keep our feet movin fellas. peace and love. much love.
I see you have a lot of tour dates in Alabama, and very few tour dates for here in Australia. Email me when you get here! darcy@email.com
I love your work guys ;)
Hey!
When are you coming to the West Coast? We would love to see you in SF.
peace
Niceeeeeeeee
Just discovered your music recently. Love what you are doing! Please come to Lawrence, KS and perform. We have a huge group of Bluegrass followers, and I know that you would have an amazing turn out if you did a show here.
Thanks,

Man, Yall ROCK. The first thing I ever heard was the Metallica tribute song Fuel.
I have since listened to your other stuff, and found that it wasnt a joke, as it was presented to me by a friend.
I am extremely impressed by your ability to take these heavy songs and make them sound like they were written for bluegrass.
Your version of The Four Horsemen and Fade to Black are my favorites from that album.
I have played Guitar and drums my whole life, and have learned all types of music from Country to Bluegrass to Speed Metal, and I love it all.
I will be making an effort to own everything Yall put out, as I havent heard one song I didnt just LOVE.
I come from Country roots, and rebelled a bit as I was growing up, Moving on to Heavy Metal, and now I play in my Churchs Gospel Band. I hope to one day be able to play and adapt music as well as you do.
Thanks!

I absolutely love your work. are you ever going to book some shows in Florida. Please let me know if you do Im centrally located in Tampa and would travel as far as Jacksonville if necessary.
Keep up the good work,

You guys rock! Ive been listeneing to yall for a few years! You need more video of LIVE performances om you tube! I would love to see more of yall! Good Luck!
will you please come play a show in my town or anywhere within an hours driving distance?
great metallica tribute versions!!
Have you guys considered doing, I Disappear by Metallica? Great song, with a really hard edge.. would love to hear your take on it!
Got introduced right around a year ago and have been digging it ever since covers are awesome and originals are killer
Yall made me cry. Rekindled the Bluegrass roots in my heart! My family is from Alabama. Lost my Dad a few years back, me and him lived in Alabama on grandmas farm when I was a kid. My boss at work has a bluegrass band. The Acoustic sound hounds. I turned him on to Iron Horse.

We are huge fans here of your Modest Mouse tribute! Going to see them this week, and we were all saying we wish we could see you instead - such a nuanced and lovely take on some really interesting songs, so you hear them in a way you never expected. Keep up the great work guys!!
I just picked up Take Me Home and both volumes of Fade to Bluegrass and all I can say is... AMAZING! Do you guys ever get near Pensacola/Mobile?
Thank you so much for your music :) I love your banjo-player :) I think its so cool that you put your banjo sound in the forefront. People want to hear the banjo, and not many bands do that. I havent been able to listen to anything else for years :P -Bendik from Norway
Please come near to New Mexico... Preferably into Albuquerque. There is an INCREDIBLE Folk/Bluegrass scene here. International Folk Festival, much?
But seriously, driving to Alabama is not really possible for the hundreds I know who would kill to see you. I mean, we could do a bunch of carjackings, thus keeping our promises of killing to see you, but would you want that blood on our hands?
two words!!! FRICKING AWESOME!!! i have just started playing the banjo and if i could play like you guys i would be so happy. massive inspiration!!! please come to the uk!!!
Ive always been a bluegrass fan, but you guys have crossed so many lines Ive introduced you to alot of my friends who have said Bluegrass is lame, well they no longer think that. I am also proud to say my parents( ages 78,&72) now know most all the words to Metallica songs. I think what you guys do is great, you have helped to close a huge generation gap. Keep on doin what your doin because we love it. I cany wait till my family reunion in Dry Fork, Arkansas to educate the hill family. Good Luck and God Bless

Your band has a wonderful sound. Please consider re-writing your bio! The one you have now doesnt do you justice. If I hadnt heard your music first, this bio would have put me off listening to the band. Im sorry to be the one to say that, but youre great musicians and someone really ought to tell you the truth.
