Acoustic Oasis is thrilled to unveil a remarkable new digital release, “David Grisman and the Rounder Album Band: Live at Grass Valley.” This extraordinary live recording captures a unique moment in bluegrass history, showcasing the unparalleled talents of a stellar lineup.

In November 1975, David Grisman brought together an exceptional group of bluegrass musicians to record his debut LP for Rounder Records. This band included:

Tony Rice (Guitar): A key member of Grisman's newly-formed Quintet and a bluegrass guitar legend.
Todd Phillips (Bass): Also from Grisman's Quintet, known for his remarkable contributions to bluegrass bass.
Bill Keith (Banjo): A pioneering banjo player and alumnus of Bill Monroe’s Bluegrass Boys.
Vassar Clements (Fiddle): The legendary fiddler and another alumnus of Bill Monroe’s Bluegrass Boys.
Jerry Douglas (Dobro): A teen prodigy and virtuoso whose talents have become legendary in the bluegrass world.

Although these exceptional musicians performed together in various concerts and sessions, they united as David's Rounder Album Band for the first and only time on July 30, 1989, at the Grass Valley Bluegrass Festival in California. With bassist Mark Schatz joining them, this one-time performance delivered powerful, vibrant, and inspired music that left an indelible mark on bluegrass history.

Now, thirty-five years later, Acoustic Oasis is proud to present this bluegrass gem from the Dawg Archives. "David Grisman and the Rounder Album Band: Live at Grass Valley" offers a captivating listening experience, transporting you back to that unforgettable afternoon.
