Bluegrass collective from Melbourne
bluegrass covers of classic songs
The Grassfires are a bluegrass band based in Melbourne, Australia, reimagining acoustic versions of songs from all eras and genres. The Grassfires feature a traditional instrumentation of a bluegrass lineup honouring the style, taking inspiration from Bill Monroe and Tony Rice all the way to Punch Brothers and Billy Strings.
The song is king
It all starts with a great song. You can have the greatest musicians in the world playing together, but a great song is what will keep people coming back. The Grassfires perform cover versions of classic songs from old and new, arrange and play them as if they were written for a bluegrass band. Banjo, mandolin, acoustic guitar, double bass and vocal harmonies bring it all together in a celebration of bluegrass and hit songs combined.
