Since their debut in 1989, Leftover Salmon have become “one of the most beloved acts on America’s summer-festival circuit,” creating a shoe-tapping mix of bluegrass, country, rock and Cajun music that is sure to please. Since their last appearance on the Mountain Stage back in 2013, the Colorado jam band have expanded their ranks to include Bill Payne (co-founder of the celebrated country rock outfit Little Feat) and added two more rootsy, string-based records to their name.
Their latest release is 25, a live compilation album that celebrates Leftover Salmon’s 25 years of neo-bluegrass and features 25 live performances recorded over the course of two years, including this 2013 performance of “Here Comes the Night.”
On the same day the YWCA Charleston had a Race to End Racism in the capitol city, a group of men from the white supremacist group Patriot Front marched through the streets of downtown.
