Our very own, Salmon Valley String Band, have been invited to be the opening act for the nationally touring, Missy Raines and the New Hip in Salmon, Idaho. Missy Raines’, the perrenial IBMA bassist of the year is touring with her latest band incarnation The New Hip.
Missy Raines is now stepping out to make a longtime dream come true; creating a fusing of bluegrass virtuosity, jazz-tinged groove and a song-driven sensibility with a hot band. – Missy Raines’ website
Curtis & I caught one of their sets at Wintergrass in February and we were both thouroughly entertained with Missy’s kick-ass energy and her musical phenom bandmates.
