The Greencards
Sun, Sep 17, 6:30 PM Austin Ventures Stage Stage
The Greencards are a contemporary bluegrass trio from Austin made up of two Aussies (Carol Young and Kym Warner) and a Brit (Eamon McLoughlin), all of whom are currently based in Nashville. If that all sounds a bit confusing, all you really need to know is that, just prior to moving to Music City, the Greencards were voted Best New Band at the 2004 Austin Music Awards and soon after nominated for Best New Emerging Talent at the Americana Music Awards. Their second album, last years exquisite Weather and Water, netted them a tour with Bob Dylan and Willie Nelson, and famed Texas songwriter Robert Earl Keen calls their music the best bluegrass Ive heard in 20 years.
