What an incredible homage. I swear I think these guys are absolutely hands-down my favorite new band. Just an amazing use of a bluegrass sound. All five are truly great players…… Or should I say pickers

I'm sure Jerry is looking down and smiling. He was a banjo picker long before the Dead.

I absolutely love these guys and tonight is the first time I’ve ever heard of them. They are performing near me and I saw their name and looked them up and I just couldn’t be more pleased. I’ve always been a bluegrass fan but never heard any of them do rock covers like this and they are astounding. Hooray hooray for Green sky blue grass.🎉🎉🎉🎉

I don't know how I missed them either. Wonderful stuff. YT music auto playlist led me to Yonder Mountain String band and Leftover Salmon too

I’ve played with plenty of rock bands that cover I Know You Rider but most of them seem afraid of China Cat. I’m a keyboard player and figured out the Bob Weir part on piano in case I get to play it. I tried learning it on acoustic guitar and, aside from it being at the edge of my technique, I don’t have a cutaway on my Hummingbird and you really need one. This is so good I don’t miss the fiddle.

What a perfect take on every level! The crazy dobro at the end of China Cat leading into the transition to Rider is exquisite. Great job all the way around, fellas!

Why am I not surprised to hear a China Rider from them? See they're coming to town soon, know nothing about them, so figured I'd check them out. Guess I'll be getting a ticket. Not necessarily because of this, but it does show that there's a special place they come from.

Hunter did not write it. Bands don't pay royalties when they play another's song either. Grateful Dead Family Discography: I Know You Rider. The first occurrence of this song is in the book American Ballads & Folk Songs by John A Lomax & Alan Lomax which was published in 1934.
