Head for the Hills

With their galloping strings, spirited four-part harmonies and pseudo-yodeling, Head for the Hills invites instant comparisons to fellow Colorado natives the Yonder Mountain String Band. Like that group, the band updates acoustic bluegrass for the jam scene. After forming in a Colorado State University dorm, Head for the Hills recorded its 2007 debut album, Robbers Roost, and has toured aggressively in the years since.
