In fact, one of their popular live recordings, released in 2005, New Monsoon Live at the Telluride Bluegrass Festival was nominated for a JAMMY award as live album of the year.
New Monsoon V and was produced, mixed and engineered by John Cutler, best known for his production work with The Grateful Dead on the platinum release In the Dark (co-produced with Jerry Garcia) and Without a Net (co-produced with Phil Lesh) and the Jerry Garcia Band’s How Sweet It Is.
