News, news, news---but not new country. Modern Grass’ traditional bluegrass won your country soul in the Best Country category, and the band has a laundry list of news bulletins: Tour dates around Nova Scotia this spring, festivals all throughout the Maritimes and a stop at one of North America’s biggest festivals, the Milwaukee Irish Fest, a new album and website in the fall, plus an upcoming guest performance on The Candy Show should leave fans as satisfied as a cowpoke after a pig roast.
