No Depression said of Portland, Oregon-based Water Tower Bucket Boys' Sole Kitchen, that it has a "...harder edge than any folk album you're likely to hear this year... they've adopted the intensity of rock and punk and channeled it into their songs and tunes. But they still love their roots and can't go through a set without throwing in an old-time ballad or a bluegrass song... Their far-ranging influences enable them to see the common ground between folk, rock, punk and even jazz, and they draw from this common ground to create their unique sound." The new sound of indie-cool bluegrass is right here.
