We like to play fast and loose, yet tightly synchopated with a layer of three-part vocal harmonies.
Formed in 2005, Spare Rib & The Bluegrass Sauce brings it's own special blend of Groove-Grass to the NorthWest. Playing a wide range of Traditional, Old Timey, Classic Rock, and Original music that merges Bluegrass with marathon Jams, the Bluegrass Sauce will get you hootin', hollerin' and stompin' all night long!
