The Be Good Tanyas are a great canadian folk/bluegrass band.

I need to study up on some older bluegrass. I did a project on it in the 7th grade and watched a bunch of videos from the library as research but all i can remember is that Bill Monroe is a bluegrass god.

I suggest torrenting this ASAP.
I got it about a year ago and it is all I listened to for about a month straight.

sorry if Im veering off into folk territory but to my uneducated ears old folk and bluegrass is like tomatoes/tomatos.

I go to this festival every year. http://www.rootsandblues.ca/

ps. the first song on that folk anthology is by the artist Dick Justice, and yes it's amazingly awesome.
