Jeff Austin Band - Formerly of YMSB
Bio:
Former Yonder Mountain String Band mandolinist & front-man Jeff Austin is unstoppable.He is celebrated for his fleet fingers and penchant for improvisation, but those qualities also speak volumes about how he chooses to live. Austin has cultivated his natural musical abilities and allowed himself to be driven by his boldest instincts.In this way,he has been able to build positive, exciting momentum around his life's greatest passion.The Simple Truth,the group's 2015 debut solo album and Austin's first recording for YepRoc records,is no simple affair. His legions of fans have long known of Austin's eclectic musical influences.Here, instead of familiar jam band motifs, listeners will find hints of power pop, country ballads, bluegrass and rock. Assisting the band is an array of acclaimed guests including Todd Snider, Jennifer Hartswick, Brendan Bayliss of Umphrey's McGee and Sarah Siskind. "I love writing a three-minute song with a hook that would grab a five-hundred-pound marlin as much as I like writing something that goes,'okay, after the bridge, it's going to open up and just go wide." Indeed,"wide" is what Jeff Austin is all about. He wants new and different,complex and interesting. He wants everything the music world has to offer, and he's willing to work hard to get it.
