Their clever mix of country, bluegrass, rock, and funk was a hit with the crowd, as the quartet continued to gain traction at the iconic Williamsburg venue. The setlist featured a mix of originals alongside notable covers, some of which the audience may not have expected to hear in a bluegrass setting.

Honoring Dawg music, along with David Grisman and Jerry Garcia's legacy, is at the heart of the Sam Grisman Project. The group was founded by Grisman's incredibly gifted son, Sam, who is a chip off the old block with seamless transitions between electric and upright bass. It helped that he was in the room when some of these timeless compositions were penned, but Sam put in the time to hone his craft.
