Greensky Bluegrass was in Denver, CO on Friday where the jamgrass outfit opened their weekend run at Mission Ballroom with support from Ghost Light in front of a packed crowd. Having two popular headline-level bands on the bill all weekend presents ample opportunity for some top-notch sit-ins, which is exactly what happened last night when Greensky welcomed guitarist Tom Hamilton to help play on a few tunes towards the latter half of the show.

Following Ghost Light’s opening performance, Greensky took the stage to open the first of their two sets with “The Four”, “Train Junkie”, “Can’t Make Time”, “White House Blues”. “Old Barns” and “Blood Sucking F(r)iends” also rounded out the first half of their show before sending their fans into set break with “Stop That Train”.

Greensky returned for a second set that included “Clinch Mountain Backstep, “Worries About the Weather”, and a two-part “Wish I Didn’t Know” into Tears For Fears‘ “Everybody Wants to Rule the World”. The highlight of the set came when they welcomed Hamilton to the stage to play on The Allman Brothers Band‘s “Ain’t Wastin’ Time No More” and “Kerosene” to close the show. The band returned to the stage sans Hamilton for a one-song encore of “Past My Prime”.

Both Ghost Light and Greensky Bluegrass will have plenty of opportunities to trade sit-ins as the two have a number of previously-announced performances together scheduled well into the early 2020 winter months.

Saturday’s show at Mission Ballroom is sold out, but fans can head to the Greensky Bluegrass and Ghost Light websites for upcoming tour info and tickets.
