    WAYBACKS WAYBACKS

    San Francisco
    From newgrass and western swing to jug band and jazz, from folk and fiddle music to improvisational excursions that defy categorization, the music of San Francisco's "The Waybacks" is wild, energetic and unpredictable. With their stellar musicianship and innate sense of adventure, they stand in good company with the few bands at the forefront of New American acoustic music. "This eclectic quintet ventures where few acoustic groups have gone. "The music made by The Waybacks ... features some of the most exotic settings for mind-blowing picking you'll ever hear. These guys are extraordinary musicians, and their spellbinding solos will leave you slack jawed. They call their music 'acoustic mayhem.' I call it sheer genius." - Michael Miller, BayArea.Com.
