Mission Blue

Today's traditional bluegrass

Mission Blue delivers today's traditional bluegrass featuring our special brand of harmony singing, strong drive, and old time picking. A deep well of tradition informs Mission Blue’s sets – one can expect songs from the The Stanley Brothers, Larry Sparks, Bill Monroe, Flatt & Scruggs, Mac Martin and Red Allen, as well as bluegrass innovators such as J.D. Crowe and The New South, Hot Rize, Southern Blend and The Johnson Mountain Boys. We also salt each set with reinterpretations of older country hits, folk songs and ballads.  Based in Northern California with a focus on regional venues and festivals in California and Oregon, the band typically performs as in a traditional 5-piece format but also appears as a trio and duet.
