Swedish bluegrass band G2 appearing with Jim Lauderdale at CountryGala 2/17-18/07Shortly after we posted last week about the interview with Jim Lauderdale on CMT.com, we heard from our friend, Jens Koch, who plays banjo with the young Swedish bluegrass group, G2.

Jens wanted to let us know that Jim would be appearing at CountryGala this weekend (2/17-18) at Vara Konserthus in Vara, Sweden. G2 will be appearing on the show both nights, and Jens will be performing on banjo with Jim.

You can hear samples of G2’s contemporary bluegrass music on their MySpace page.
