Here is a band, The NitPickers, who lean towards the bluegrass side of things like Nevah with Newgrass, Bluegrass roots. Any band, we haven't seen, who plays Newgrass and/or Bluegrass makes us a bit curious. And the NitPickers are one we've heard about and would like the opportunity to check out in the near future. However, until we do catch them in action we will continue to help support the cause for Maine Music here on our Blog.
The NitPickers:
"An ear-catchingly great bluegrass band from Central Maine. Formed in June of 2007, The NitPickers play traditional and original bluegrass and newgrass with impressive harmonies and raw enthusiasm.
Their self-titled CD displays a range of material from newgrass instrumentals to eloquent ballads to playful modern bluegrass delivered with heart and commitment.
Members are Don Bernier on fiddle, mandolin, guitar and vocals, Jane Bernier on guitar, mandolin and vocals, Rich Bernier on dobro, guitar and vocals, Richard Bicknell on banjo, and Woody Woods on bass and vocals.
If you get a chance, catch 'em at a venue near you!
