Goldmine Pickers (with The Idea Men)

Goldmine Pickers have been brewing a fresh blend of acoustic music for audiences in the U.S. and Europe since 2003. Reviewers and concert-goers alike have reached for culinary terms to describe the music of the Midwest three-piece, including, fresh, tasty, choice ingredients, savory, and a pleasing, hearty stew. Described as having a timeless approach yet a style that is uniquely their own, the band effortlessly serves up a rich, fun blend of Americana, bluegrass, folk, old-time and Irish musicwith dashes of country, and jam for good measure.

The band has been noted for an ability to shift from high-energy barn-burners with remarkably tight musicianship into skillfully rendered and laid-back ballads. With a penchant for hooks, melodies and dynamic soloing, the band also shines on its slower numbers, highlighting emotional songwriting skills well beyond that of your average barnstormers, said Seven Days of Burlington Vermont.

In addition to performing in diverse settings from the U.S. Midwest to Ireland, the versatility of the band has delivered them to stages alongside artists such as David Grisman, Leann Rhimes, Clint Black, The Weary Boys, Wayne the Train Hancock, Del McCoury Band, Hot Buttered Rum, The Waybacks, Pierce Pettis, Greensky Bluegrass, Emory Lester Set, Mickey Hart, Peter Rowan, Sam Bush, Yonder Mountain String Band, Blues Traveler, and many more.
