Old and In The Way History
Old and In The Way was formed in 1973, emerging as one of the seminal bands in the bluegrass genre. The group was a supergroup of sorts, consisting of prominent musicians including Jerry Garcia of the Grateful Dead, David Grisman, Peter Rowan, Vassar Clements, and John Kahn. The band's unique blend of traditional bluegrass with influences from rock, folk, and jazz set them apart in the music scene of the time. Their self-titled album, released in 1975, is often considered one of the cornerstones of the genre, showcasing a mix of original songs and covers that highlighted their innovative spirit and musicianship. Despite their relatively short time together, Old and In The Way left a lasting impact on the bluegrass community and influenced countless musicians who followed. After disbanding, the members pursued various solo careers and projects, but the legacy of Old and In The Way has endured, with their music continuing to resonate with fans of all ages. In 2002, the band reunited for a special performance, reigniting interest in their work and leading to a resurgence of their music in live concerts and festivals over the years.
