Jake and Mike reharm Wheel Hoss

Event Details

Jake Jolliff and Mike Barnett, a pair of northeastern bluegrass adventurers, have released a video of their modern reharmonization of Bill Monroe’s Wheel Hoss.

The leave the basic chord structure intact but take some major liberties with the melody. It’s a mighty powerful reworking of this mandolin/fiddle classic.
