About the band

From their humble beginnings of playing local pizza joints for peanuts, The Blue Mountain Boys have developed into one of Swedens leading exponents of traditional bluegrass.
Their hard-driving, high-n-lonesome approach to the music, combined with a humourous stage manner, makes for a great live act that stays true to the classic bluegrass shows of the golden era.

"The Blue Mountain Boys struck like lightning from a clear blue sky!"
Torsåker Bluegrass Festival, 2004.
