(Btw - Edgar Meyer is amazing. I've only had one album of his, it was his own work, the one where he did every instrument himself, that is a great CD worth buying.)

Have you all heard Chris Thile?
He's an incredible musician, virtuoso mandolin player, and an absolutely amazing performer and singer. He's been in numerous bands, I don't know all of them, including Punch Brothers and Nickel Creek.
There's a ton of videos with him in them on Youtube, with Edgar Meyer, with his band, solo or with other artists. These are just a couple I love.

Punch Brothers, "Rye Whiskey"

No one who likes music saw this? :D :p

I just found this song by Edgar Meyer, it's from his 2006 track, was happy to find it because I couldn't find it before.. Edgar Meyer is a virtuouso double-bass player. On his 2006 album titled his name, he played every instrument on it himself! :)

Anyway this is track 2 of the album, I don't know if it's the best one.. I lost my CD of it a couple years ago. The album is very nice, it all fits together, one track leading into the next.

Unfortunately, I don't see any of the other tracks of that album online.
