Marcel you should have this available as a pdf/poster, it's fantastic!
Yeah, a poster would be great.
I'd definitely buy that
Would happily pay some $$ for a pdf. of that inforgraphic.
Yes, a large poster. Good fund raiser material. I’d pay!
A poster would be awesome of the graphic.
Dude! I need that graphic as a poster in my life! Fantastic presentation brother!!
Please sell posters of this! It's so well made! I think there would be a lot of buyers. I would buy one right away : )
Would you mind releasing a full quality image of this presentation? You've done such a good job with the flow and there's so many paths to follow!
Beautiful presentation and amazing job. New fans of Bluegrass are so lucky to have you as a resource ! !
Thank you kindly!
WOW!…that is an impressive presentation! As a teacher and educator on different subjects than music, I’m blown away at how well you organized and presented the information. As a guitar player who dabbles in Bluegrass, I realize I knew NOTHING about it! I started attending Bluegrass jams because they were available in the small town I lived in….but I was unaware of the true history or progression of the genre. This should be “required viewing” for all players! Thank you for putting it together.
This is my favorite thing I’ve seen all year
What, you didn’t mention Ricky Skaggs? Please. Also, the influence and continuing popularity of Old Time (yes, it’s a genre) music on Bluegrass. Thanks for getting a good start on the history of bluegrass!
I honestly want this as a poster
Is there a printable file for this graphic? This would look good on a wall in a music studio.
I would definitely buy that to hang in my house!

Hey Marcel where can I get that as a poster!? Brilliant, thank you!
The names dropped in this discussion feel appropriate to me. My musical roots are in melodic death metal and such, but I've always kept tabs on what's going on in bluegrass and folk music on the side, and the two worlds have been colliding a lot in the last decade or so. There's a band called Wilderun that incorporates Jerry Douglas-esque dobro melodies and I've noticed Billy Strings using arpeggio techniques that are specific to the metal repertoire. Banjo has been featured on tracks like Redneck Vikings from Hell by Aether Realm and Stone Cold Metal by Ensiferum. It's a weird time to live in between these worlds.
Dude, as someone who's been learning banjo for a couple years but didn't grow up with bluegrass, this stuff is a godsend for keeping me in the loop with what other people talk about.
I liked this before watching it. I just know it's going to be good.
All these recommendations should be a Spotify playlist
wow can't believe you didn't mention
I was going to but then I
Hey Marcel, thanks for the history lesson. Nice to connect some dots. I recently went to a Wernick method jam camp, (super fun), and learned of Pete, and Hot Rize. (Red Knuckles is amazing too!). I am overwhelmed by the shear volume of talent, and great music past and present. I've always loved Allison Krause Union Station, and Doc Watson. The participation part is what has drawn me to bluegrass. The singing, and playing both are really fun. I'm ok if the "gatekeepers" turn their backs now and then. The youngsters are defining the future.
i stopped the video and listened to everything man. thanks for this. its what ive been looking for.
Great video! Impressed with how well you put it together. I think mentioning Doyle Lawson & Quicksilver was one of the most important points - for anyone new to bluegrass wanting to get into more, there's no better band to start with!
I mean, I'm not sure you can get a more succinct interpretation of bluegrass music in under 20 min. I'd be interested in a poster of the info graphic for sure. Very well done!
My introduction into the genre was with Dawg music through David Grisman and his son Sam. Dawg music changed my life.
before i was aware of bluegrass, "mountain music" is the term i would use to describe what i would later find out is bluegrass so thats interesting that the stanley brothers used that term
I've always thought that an important step came when songs by writers outside bluegrass were adopted, and this comes over well in your presentation - a first class job!
Incredible work Marcel! This would make a GREAT wall poster! Might be worth considering! I would love to have one to frame and hang in my music room! Thanks for putting that great presentation out! 🎼😎👍🏼
This video!!! Ahhhh!!! It filled my spirit, sooo many great things! I wish I’d discovered this music before I was in college… but better late than never. Can’t wait to get home tonight & play a lil more mando-mash! ❤😅
Born in 1949, I grew-up knowing Bluegrass first hand.
Thanks for this concise history.
what a fantastic, useful resource for those like myself wanting to dive deeper into Bluegrass! Liked and subscribed.
It took me like an hour and a half to get through this video cause I kept having to pause and bookmark tracks and albums in my Spotify. This is 🔥
Great job! Looking forward to the graphic being poster-sized merch in your store.
What amazing work!
Amazing job, Marcel! Truly amazing!
Fantastic! Thanks for the map. Great job.
Thanks for all of the new tunes to check out!
Excellent graphics and content ! So glad you did this, you have a wonderful perspective and a very detailed knowledge based inventory that shows your love and respect for the whole genre.
It is such a thrill to see my album collection scrolling across the screen and some discs I need to buy !
Hope all is well !! You seem a long way from the start of the channel on the wet coast.
All the best,
from Vancouver Ilsand !
This was awesome and so helpful!!
We’ll done Marcel!.. yes, should mention HotRize.. ;)
Good stuff! It's great because there is a flavor out there for everybody, and you start to develop a taste for other flavors when you find hints of familiarity in the ones you haven't tried yet. Keep pickin'!
Masterful job! Thoroughly enjoyed it.
Brilliant! Thank you!
This is awesome -- a huge thank you for your scholarship and passion.
As a bluegrass picker and a fan of the Secret Base channel, I commend you for your graphical representation of history.
Very well done ! Interesting history
Excellent, Marcel!
What a great presentation! Thank you for taking the time to do so! Awesome vid
I heard trampled by turtles in a Starbucks 7 years ago, that led to me being obsessed with bluegrass present day. I’ll always love alternative grass for that reason
Excellent video, thanks Marcel.
Gotta be one of my favorite videos on TH-cam. Great stuff brother 🫡
Dude, that was incredibly well done.
Awesome video!
Great stuff Marcel!
Marcel- love your humor!
Thank you for this great presentation. Great information that puts all of these bands and styles in perspective. Keep up the good work!
Great Job!!!! Sharing with everyone I know!!!
Great video! So much useful information.
Wow! Informative and enjoyable...puts a lot in perspective. Well done Marcel!
Fantastic job man!
Good morning Marcel! Great segment!
Loved it! I grew up listening to and loving almost all these sub-genres and never could have teased them all out. Thanks for laying it all out. Makes sense.
Thank you! you’ve helped me a lot! I‘ve just put many albums you recommended here into my playlists!
I’d totally buy a poster of this for my band room if you ever printed one…
Great breakdown! Amazing to see how the genre evolved over time. I have so much new music (to me) to listen to now!!!!
Nice work Marcel!
well done Marcel! this will become a classic indispensable tool in the bluegrass cannon! thanks for the effort you put into this.
Well done Marcel. 👍🏽👍🏽
Thanks for sharing! Impressive amount of work to put this together. The Seldom Scene-Live at the Cellar Door still ranks as most influential for me. I would also include Hot Rize somewhere on the list.
Just a fantastic video for someone like myself who's been immersing myself for a couple years now but haven't been able to make sense of all the different sub-genres or scenes and could is still working through all the essential albums. Thanks Marcel!
As a long-time bluegrass head I have to say this video is amazing! Such a good job of highlighting the main sub-genres and influential artists. And you saved yourself at the end by finally mentioning Hot Rize. 😂
The key phrase in the entire video is at 5:44 - "Bluegrass musicians who were more open to change thrived." Back in the '90's I got into a LOT of arguments on the bluegrass-L listserve. So many "traditionalists" were hard-line in that anything that didn't sound like the original traditional Bill Monroe style music wasn't bluegrass. I wasn't having it. Music is not static, it's ever-changing and when people push boundaries that's when music gets interesting.
Your phrase sums up that ethos perfectly and that's proved to be true in reality with the current popularity of the modern-era fusion bluegrass.
music and charts- my two favourite things! I need so much more this content, I literally couldn't stop watching this video, thank you!
I once heard that Bill Monroe described "bluegrass" as "Contemporary music arraigned for these instruments." Now that's a traditional approach!
And a shout out to Jens Kruger, best banjo player on the planet!
Good job Marcel! Great overview and you’ve given me several bands to go check out.
Awesome!
Great presentation from the history to the graphics. Your knowledge of the genre as well as your comedic dry humor make this an award-winning presentation!
Admirable effort 😊 of a fun ride of creativity
So good.
Thanks Brother
lot of good work here! a brave and bold endeavor that will no doubt help a lot of folks understand the subjects better. really nice production aesthetics too - love the fox in the graphics!
Loved it.
Great video!
Bravo, sir. You did a wonderful job of what seemed an impossible job. Well laid out and explained for anyone to follow and understand. Thank you.
Marcel, this is a fantastic resource! I'm more into trad Irish music, but I was still able to follow along, and mostly agree with you, every step of the way!
This is amazing. Its hard to chase down those distinctions, and you did with clarity. Would love to see followups regarding breakdowns into those movements, and characteristics of bands today. Props for Cadillac Sky mention and for the toad reference from O Brother. Thoroughly enjoyed the content and the production quality!
That was an excellent presentation Marcel.The history is rich with the bands and influential performer's that made Bluegrass the soundstage for the players of today.Thanks.!
I was waiting for you to mention The Seldom Scene. Used to go and see them at the Birchmere in Alexandria, back in the 80s.
And what was it John Duffy was talking about when he called for some "Acid Grass"?
I appreciate this. I was with you up to around 2000 but then the gaps in my knowledge kicked in. I was aware of some but wasn't clear on where they fit in. I listen to Molly, Billy, Punch Bros, and just picked up the Kitchen Dwellers recent album but need to find Crooked Still and a few others you mentioned. Keep em coming.
Interesting...
I've known Flatt & Scruggs 'Rocky Mountain Breakdown' since I was a child (no idea how/why, LOL), but until 'O Brother where are thou', Bluegrass music wasn't really on my radar (here in the UK)... Since then, there has been a steady trickle of Bluegrass, Country & Americana (notably Gillian Welch & David Rawlings) & since I started learning guitar again, that trickle has increased... Obviously, artists like Molly Tuttle & OCMS didn't appear out of nowhere, but it's good to see a bit more of the history of the stuff in-between.
Poster would be pretty cool. Mighty Poplar is a bluegrass band will be another one to add, and Caitlin Canty’s new album seems to fit too.
Great summary. I was going to mention Hot Rize, so lol'd when you did. I know you can't get everyone and every seminal album. I would however have thrown in Lester, Earl & Doc's Strictly Instrumental. I think that set the tone for the Tony's and Sam's of the world. But, I agree you can't get everyone and everything. Will definitely share this. You must have put hours into this.
A weeks worth of information in 18 minutes. Pretty awesome.
This is a gift, Marcel...I didn't know how much I didn't know about Bluegrass!
Great presentation and very educational of where we were, where we are and where we are going. Thanks. c2
Very cool vid marcel! Definitely agree this should be required viewing for newbies, as a colorado native i was almost giddy when we got to jam grass, and to learn how those bands i grew up on (yonder mtn, string cheese, ect) fit into the progression of the genre. i was also happy to hear that the stanley bros called it "mountain music".... i've always said that about my own playing and it kinda feels legit now lol history is the best!! also the mix on "born lonesome" is really incredible, thanks for the recommended listening!
hard to digest it all in one sitting...great job bringing it together
HAHAHA I was just thinking...."Where's Hot Rize??" you read my mind. Great presentation Marcel.
Dude you are a star
Very good use of graphics in a presentation.
What a great video. Dunno how you do all this. The content is superb, the production is superb.
Amazing.
Wonderful
The subtle Pythagoras nod for Haney got a laugh from me. Nice touch.
Awesome. We love you in South Wales UK. :)
