The High Ground Drifters are an all star assemblage of bluegrass pickers and singers that joined together post Katrina. They combine traditional and contemporary bluegrass in a tightly interplayed style that emphasizes harmony singing and energetic tempos. Whether it is Bill Monroe, the Stanley Brothers, or Del Mccoury and Ricky Skaggs or their originals featured on their debut record, The High Ground Drifters (Lonesome Cul De Sac Records), the influences are plain to see and encourage the band to put their own mark on the songs.
Festivals around the area have featured the High Ground Drifters and their acoustic bluegrass style is a nice departure for audiences in a jazz oriented town. This Mid City based band includes Grant Ligon on Guitar, Paul Williams on Mandolin, John Noble on Banjo, Jeff Bagwell on Fiddle, and Greg Nichols on Bass. Their fast paced sets often include reworkings of songs by Fats Domino, Pink Floyd, Jethro Tull, and Yes, among others. Gather around the stage as they gather around a single microphone and bring bluegrass to you with New Orleans musicality
