When I'm not playing searing rock'n'roll, I can be found listening devoutly to bluegrass. The playing is often astonishingly good, some of the best around. If anyone likes great picking, you ought to check out this kid called Sierra Hull. She's 21, I believe, and plays her mandolin like it's on fire. This video shows her playing some rocking bluegrass licks during a living room jam: it's marvelous. Hope you enjoy.
