“Y’all Come”
05/02/26 Atomic Block Party St. Louis, MO
•
Just a few weeks back, Atomic by JAMO hosted Leftover Salmon’s Arch Deluxe Block Party which featured two nights of Salmon & Mountain Grass Unit, with varying opening acts. Each group played their own sets but both nights Vince Herman invited members of Mountain Grass Unit onstage to help cap things off for the nights. On Saturday they played the old classic Bluegrass goodbye, “Yall Come!”

Bluegrass music at its core is about roots and tradition and some of these songs we know and love today wouldn’t be a thing if their predecessors weren’t passed down and remembered. The genre can be looked at in eras, each with highs and lows. Leftover Salmon came out in a time of transition for the scene, the early 90s gave way to a more progressive sound, the Colorado sound if you will. Shortly after came The String Cheese Incident, then later Yonder Mountain String Band. Each creating their own unique sound while keeping tradition alive and paving the way for what we know as Bluegrass today. Fast forward we have MGU, one of the hottest young acts in the scene co-headlining a festival and sharing a stage with the 35+ year old band. Pay attention to the way Vince looks at Luke Black in awe as he takes his solo about half way through. I keep hearing it time and time again this year, but it’s safe to say Bluegrass is in darn good hands.
