Mipso

The renegade traditionalists of Mipso are doing their part to take three-and-four-part harmony and Appalachian influences into new territory. Formed in Chapel Hill in 2010, these four North Carolinians are touring the country to support their 2013 release, "Dark Holler Pop". They are well loved in their home state, and we're sure they'll soon be well loved in California. Mipso is Joseph Terrell on guitar, Wood Robinson on double bass, Jacob Sharp on mandolin, and Libby Rodenbough on fiddle.

Jacob Sharp is from Morganton, North Carolina. Jacob got his first mandolin after winning a fishing bet with his dad.

Wood Robinson is from Greensboro, North Carolina. A student of jazz, his favorite album is Bill Evans' "Sunday At the Village Vanguard"

Joseph Terrell is from High Point, North Carolina, where his grandmother taught him his first song on guitar, Doc Watson's "Tom Dooley".

Libby Rodenbough is from Greensboro, North Carolina. Though she grew up playing classical violin, Libby took a year off during college to study folk music in Chicago and fiddle in Ireland.
