    Another bluegrass GD band I heard recently is called "The Grass is Dead". I heard them on the serius/xm dead channel during Jerry week. Dont know where they are from.

    as someone mentioned JGB with Melvin Seals. Melvin Seals! That's almost as good as Merle Saunders still being alive. Which by the way, their recent shows on Archive sound really good, and they're busting out those classic JGB tunes and covers. Run for the Roses, Mystery Train
