Missy Raines & the New Hip
Seven-time IBMA Bass Player of the Year Missy Raines has a recipe for fresh, zesty music. Start with bluegrass virtuosity, add jazz-tinged groove then dish it up with a hot band of young players on bass, vocals, drums, guitar, and mandolin. The band moves easily from fun, funky instrumentals to sophisticated songs of longing and hope.
"The New Hip features some deft singer-songwriter vocal change-ups, as well as musically witty instrumentals that cross over into what could just as well be labeled progressive jazz." -Barry Mazor, Wall Street Journal
