b'When it comes to bluegrass, many folks have a preconceived notion of the sound they can expect. Swiftly picked guitars that hold a steady rhythm, fiddles that cut straight through the mix, a smooth-riding bassline and some harmonies. It\\u2019s a fairly reasonable expectation really, considering how static the genre could be perceived throughout its history. However, as new generations take on these traditional genres they find new horizons, expanding into a melting pot of influences that makes for one refreshing take. That\\u2019s where acts like the Jon Stickley Trio come into play.'
