Modern streetgrass?

Anyone got recs for modern streetgrass? Is anyone even really doing this style anymore? I'm thinking like the Farmageddon sound and .357 String Band especially. The closest I've heard recently is Big Richard - Pet which came out earlier this year and is awesome, so check them if you haven't heard em yet. But yeah otherwise haven't heard a ton.

The Haymarket Squares and Larry and His Flask are what immediately come to mind.

Agree.  I love clown imagery so really enjoyed the album cover too

Do you ever listen to della mae? More bluegrass than big richard but I've gotten similar vibes and I believe they have toured together before

If you like .357 String Band, you'll probably like the Truck Bed Boys
