Coolgrass enjoy straight bluegrass, but prefer their bluegrass to be a bit bent. In addition to their own songs and parodies, Coolgrass tackle the likes of Mozart, Mancini, Chuck Berry, Queen, Duke Ellington and many more in a tongue-firmly-in-cheek bluegrass style.
They're based in Melbourne (Australia, not Florida) and can be found causing musical mayhem at various folk and bluegrass festivals.
They've recorded 2 CDs: "Toad Rage" and "Jaguar Breakdown" (in honour of Jim's "reliable" old car). They made lots of new friends, and raised a few new eyebrows, on their 2009 tour of New Zealand. In May-June 2009 Coolgrass is taking a short break from performing (to fix some worn-out body parts) and will be back at the Redlands Bluegrass Festival in July.

Thanks so much for the add. very much appreciated. I love your music. I have a few more 'witty' songs yet to go up (when the album is finished) but 'Pros and Cons' has been getting good reviews and it's fun to put comedy to music. Keep up the great work.
