If you’ve spent any time at all around the Northwest Bluegrass scene you’ve run into one or more of these musicians in one or more bands.  Formed in late 2008, Bluestone County features powerful vocalists and accomplished instrumentalists, all from the Mid-Willamette Valley. 

You’ll find that they are not afraid to wander the spectrum of bluegrass from traditional to contemporary. Polished and poised, eloquent and experienced, Bluestone County seeks to bring an air of artistry and true craftsmanship to all they do.

If you don't recognize this Yakima-based band, don't worry. They're just now beginning to get into people's "contacts."Although this is a new band you might just know some of these pickers if you follow Northwest Bluegrass. One could liken these boys to a good gumbo...start with a rich acoustic roux, add some spicy hot licks, let those powerful vocals simmer and mellow out the flavor, and my goodness, what a tasty full-bocied bluegrass concoction. No doubt; you're gonna want seconds!
