Grammy-nominated Yonder Mountain String Band set the tone for a new way forward in acoustic music, carrying bluegrass into rooms and conversations it had never reached before. Nearly three decades later, that same spirit still guides them, alive and present on Good As True (2026), the band’s 12th studio album.

The record captures Yonder in full stride—unguarded and in motion, preserving the spark of musicians playing in real time and leaning into everything they have learned along the way. From their genre-bending approach to their electrifying live performances, Yonder Mountain String Band continues to redefine what bluegrass can be.

Join us at Rhythm & Roots Festival 2026 in Charlestown, Rhode Island, over Labor Day Weekend to experience their dynamic sound alongside an incredible lineup of Cajun, Zydeco, blues, country, and Americana artists across three stages.
