After seven years, three albums, innumerable sold out shows, and countless beers, bluegrass mavericks Horseshoes & Hand Grenades appropriately consider themselves a family on a wild, wonderful, and often whacky roller coaster. The bond between David C. Lynch [harmonica, accordion, spoons, vocals], Collin Mettelka [fiddle, mandolin, vocals], Russell Pedersen [banjo, fiddle, vocals], Adam Greuel [guitar, dobro, vocals], and Samual Odin [bass] fuels their creativity and chemistry on stage and in the studio.
They have ignited stages alongside everyone from Greensky Bluegrass, Yonder Mountain String Band, The Infamous Stringdusters, and Trampled By Turtles to Railroad Earth, Merle Haggard, and Marty Stuart in addition to appearances at festivals such as Delfest, High Sierra Music Festival, Blue Ox Music Festival, Northwest String Summit, John Hartford Memorial Festival, and many more. Their three albums, Another Round [2012], This Old Town [2013], and Middle Western [2015] have spawned fan favorite hits, including Get Down To It, Stuck On Your Mind, and Whiskey.
The group's latest release, 'The Ode,' marks a point of growth. In addition to the bluegrass burner type tunes everyone knows and loves, this record experiments with new elements and bring's retrospective musical curiosities into the fold. Sam drops in a jazz and classical feel. Dave brings that Zydeco, Cajun, and old school blues vibe. Collin turns up with this kinda pop folk energy, and Russell gives us the old-timey banjo feel.
