Infamous Stringdusters

The Infamous Stringdusters are a bluegrass band. The band emerged in 2007 with the acclaimed album, "Fork in the Road" on Sugar Hill Records. The various members of the band all have résumés that include numerous notables that they've worked with in the past. The band's current line-up features: Andy Hall (Dobro), Andy Falco (guitar), Chris Pandolfi (banjo), Jeremy Garrett (fiddle), Jesse Cobb (mandolin), and Travis Book (upright bass). [http://thestringdusters.com/about/ "About"] , biography page from thestringdusters.com] Falco is the newest member, filling the role vacated by guitarist Chris Eldridge (son of Ben Eldridge and later a touring partner with Chris Thile).

The Infamous Stringdusters won three awards at the International Bluegrass Music Association Awards Ceremony in October 2007. They came away with the award for Emerging Artist of the Year, Album of the Year for "Fork in the Road" (in a tie with J.D. Crowe & the New South's album "Lefty's Old Guitar"), and Song of the Year for the album's title cut.
