   About <<< Rusty Thimbles >>>
The Rusty Thimbles blend the past 100 years of American tradition into their own brand of raucous acoustic music. The Grand Rapids three-piece use upright bass, kazoo, washboard, and other instruments to put their stamp on traditional, original, and popular material.

Fans of Old Crow Medicine Show and the Asylum Street Spankers should not miss the next performance by this Newgrass-Dixieland-jug band-rockabilly group.



Some of the bands that we have enjoyed covering include but are certainly not limited to: Muddy Waters (Ann Cole), Pink Floyd, Queen, Johnny Cash, Michael Jackson, Old Crow Medicine Show, Old & In The Way, Dusty Springfield, Ella Fitzgerald, The Cars, Nine Inch Nails, Paul Simon, Alice In Chains, Squirrel Nut Zippers, Prince, Green Day & More!! You never know what we might pull out of our hats!

I wanted to drop you a note to thank you for taking the time to listen to our music.
We appreciate the gesture and are grateful that you enjoyed the material enough to add us to your community of friends. After all, having people connect with our music is why we do this. I hope you'll come by often to say hello and let us know what's happening with you, and when you have a spare moment, please visit our brand new webpage at www. crosstimbersbluegrass. com (sorry, I’m a better bass player than I am a webpage designer ha ha ha) there you can listen to more of our music and find out more about us.
