Punch Brothers are a bluegrass band consisting of Chris Thile (mandolin), Gabe Witcher (fiddle/violin), Noam Pikelny (banjo), Chris Eldridge (guitar), and Paul Kowert (bass). Their style has been described as introducing “bluegrass instrumentation and spontaneity in the structures of modern classical.” Their new album Antifogmatic is a ten-song set of collectively written material takes a clear-eyed view of those things less tangible than booze that can make us woozy: the pleasures and pitfalls of romance, the seemingly limitless possibilities and multifarious temptations of life in the big city. Punch Brothers stopped by Studio 1A for a session with John Aielli on Eklektikos.
