Grain Thief - Something Sour, Something Sweet (2021)
“Grain Thief are pushing bluegrass as a genre, looking forward and exploring new ways and new sounds.”
Released October 29, 2021
“Old time music has always been a part of our live repertoire since we started the band” says Grain Thief’s Patrick Mulroy. “Until now, this was never really represented in our recorded repertoire. There was a piece missing in the discography. Thus, our new record Something Sour, Something Sweet; mostly traditional fiddle tunes, with a few extra recordings from the archives.”
