Following his departure from Yonder Mountain String Band to focus on a budding solo career, Jeff Austin predictably added a slew of solo shows with his band, which features Danny Barnes, Ross Martin and Eric Thorin. The quartet will also enter the studio to record their debut album.

Austin will also play select shows with the Jeff Austin Trio, pairing the mandolinist with Ross Martin and Eric Thorin. During Gathering of the Vibes, YarmonyGrass and Lockn’ Festival, Austin will also join Keller Williams’ Grateful Grass project.
