Mountain Grass Unit - Appalachian Smoke Tour

Mountain Grass Unit brings their Appalachian Smoke Tour to the 9:30 Club in Washington, D.C., on Sunday, November 8, 2026, presented by All Good Presents. Hailing from Birmingham, Alabama, this quartet has rapidly risen as a leading force in modern bluegrass, blending razor-sharp picking, improvisation, and four-part harmony. The band—Drury Anderson on mandolin and vocals, Luke Black on guitar and vocals, Josiah Nelson on fiddle and vocals, and Sam Wilson on bass and vocals—broke through in 2025 with nearly 100 national tour dates, over thirty sold-out headline shows, and standout festival performances at Telluride Bluegrass, DelFest, Northlands, and WinterWonderGrass. Rolling Stone hailed them as the “surprise show” of Telluride, and Saving Country Music called them the “next big band in bluegrass,” with national recognition from Paste, Relix, and No Depression. They earned the International Bluegrass Music Association’s Momentum Artist of the Year award at IBMA week. Currently in the studio working on a full-length album due in late summer, the band has supported acts like The Infamous Stringdusters and Kitchen Dwellers, and shared stages with Billy Strings and Greensky Bluegrass. This performance is part of their Appalachian Smoke Tour, showcasing the band’s forward-looking take on roots music.
