Beloved bluegrass ensemble Yonder Mountain String Band made their way to the Brooklyn Bowl last night, completing the first of a two-night stand at the famed Brooklyn, NY venue. Yonder has made the Brooklyn Bowl a regular stop during their tours, and the band was in tip-top shape for a great performance to open up the run last night.
After an opening set from Pert Near Sandstone, it was up to Yonder to deliver the goods. The band delighted with their original music, but also brought in a number of covers for their opening night. The show included songs by Joan Jett, Neutral Milk Hotel, Röyksopp, Blind Melon, Bob Dylan, America, Bruce Springsteen, Ben E. King and Faces! You can catch an official video of the show closer, a rendition of “Ooh La La” by the Faces, below.
Check out the full setlist posted below, as well as a beautiful gallery of images from Andrew Scott Blackstein Photography. If you can’t make it to the show tonight, be sure to catch the official stream on nugs.tv!
