    All under the age of 16, brothers Jonny, Robbie and Tommy Mizzone are from New Jersey, a US state that's better known for the rock of Bruce Springsteen than the bluegrass of Earl Scruggs. Nonetheless, the siblings began performing bluegrass covers, as well as their own compositions, at a young age. Here, they play three dazzling songs in three different keys, passing the lead back and forth from fiddle to banjo to guitar.

    Everybody is complimenting the banjo or fiddle player, but I just want to say it's not easy at all to play the guitar as cleanly as the eldest does. There's a lot of work that goes into making it sound that easy.

      Kaleb Marshall: Fact is the guitar was very poorly miked by whoever was in control of the soundboard. The kid was doing some pretty impressive flat picking.

    My daddy played with the Stanley Brother's in early 50's after being self taught, couldn't read a note all by ear. Lost him 6 years ago, cried through this so reminded me of him. He primarily was a fiddle player, but could play banjo, mandolin, guitar, bass, harmonica.... anything stringed. These young men are amazing!

    the fact that I’ve been freind’s with these guys for 6 years now and that they released some songs during that time is so cool to me. They aren’t doing this as much anymore due to college and life, but Jonny *the banjo player* made a remix a few months back and it’s pretty cool

    That is pure God given talent. These kids do not need strobe lights, smoke, lasers, extremely loud speakers like many groups use thatactually hide their lack of talent.
    This is pure unadulterated musical talent.
    I noticed that all three, when playing solos, their notes are clear and crisp, whether it's the banjo, fiddle, or guitar and playing at a fast speed.
    God bless them, their talents, and their parents.
    GREAT GOING GUYS!!!!!!
    Now THAT is talent; not these practically naked, screamers that are paid millions to appear during the Super Bowl, and do nothing but shout. If they didn't have the laser shows behind them, they would all be huge big flops.

      It IS IRISH (celtic), and Scot from the Appalachia's. But, these boys are Italian, kinda of odd that they appreciate Irish/Scot music as much as they do.

      Zed Dez Bluesgrass itself is American, so it's not a surprise they play it. But it originated from Ireland. Just as rock was inspired by country, jazz and a mix of other tunes.

      Zed Dez They are American of Italian lineage. All of us (except the original Americans) are of some lineage. That has nothing to do with their God given talent.
