Yonder Mountain String Band plays a subgenre of music called "jamgrass," which roughly translates as new-school pop with bluegrass roots. Formed in 1998, when members Dave Johnston, Ben Kaufman, Adam Aijala and Jeff Austin met at a nightclub in Colorado, the Yonder Mountain String Band has spent the time since residing at or near the top of the American bluegrass scene. Not only have its last three albums topped the U.S. bluegrass charts, but its live shows have also won acclaim for their electrifying improvisations.
