Headwaters: Home
If you are looking for an Idaho bluegrass band, look no further. Marc Kottraba (guitar) and Dave Muscavage (mandolin) have been performing their Idaho style of bluegrass/folk music for over 12 years. As the Headwaters Band they provide entertainment at a variety of live music locales throughout Southern Idaho and are regular performers at Redfish Lake Lodge and The Bridge Street Grill in Stanley. The Headwaters Band also provides lively bluegrass music at local pubs, private parties, live music festivals, and weddings in Stanley, the Ketchum Sun Valley area, Twin Falls, and Boise. You may even hear their foot stompin’ blend of Idaho bluegrass/folk music as opening entertainment for national touring acts such as the Sam Bush Band.
From John Prine to John Hiatt, Lester Flatt to Paul Simon, from Hot Rize to Cream, Headwaters' music blurs the line between several styles of music. Their music is traditional, contemporary, fresh, and spontaneous. The guitar rhythm may sound familiar, the mandolin chops might remind you of that bluegrass festival last summer, but you will quickly realize there is something a little different the first time you hear the Headwaters Band. Tim O'Brien's self-description of his Odd Man In CD may best describe Headwaters' music: ".....walking-the-line-between-several-genres acoustic music that rocks a bit, but you understand the words."
