Yonder Mountain String Band Sets Winter Adventure
Touring in support of its 2015 release, Black Sheep, YMSB will welcome Trout Steak Revival to the winter outing. Keller and the Keels appears on two nights.
Yonder Mountain String Band has grown a bit since the departure of mandolinist/singer Jeff Austin. Joining Adam Aijala, Dave Johnston and Ben Kaufmann are Allie Kral on violin/vocals and Jacob Jolliff on mandolin/vocals.
YMSB won’t be idle during the months leading up to the band’s winter journey. The band’s fall tour includes stops in Milwaukee, Minneapolis and Chicago. Come December Yonder Mountain will appear at Strings & Sol in Cancun, Mexico. The last week of December finds the band playing a multi-night stand at the Boulder Theatre in Boulder, Colo.
