    Colorado's Yonder Mountain String Band, is known for its high-energy, improvisational live shows with a sound based on bluegrass blended with rock. In 1998, a mutual love for bluegrass quite unexpectedly brought the four players together during a free-for-all jam session at The Verve, a bar outside of Boulder. Blending bluegrass and rock with traditional instrumentation (guitar, bass, mandolin and banjo), Yonder Mountain has pioneered their own distinctive sound. Known for his astonishing one-man show, Keller Williams surrounds himself with instruments and pedals sliding from one to the next. He first began experimenting in the 1990s, playing with cover bands in high school and college. Keller has worked with such musical greats as Bob Weir, Béla Fleck, John Scofield, Charlie Hunter, Victor Wooten, The String Cheese Incident and many others. While his tunes are rooted in a warm voice and spirited acoustic guitar, Keller gives them depth and breadth with his one-of-a-kind mix of multiple instruments and electronic devices.
