Born in the foothills of Northern California, Caltucky is a progressive bluegrass band forging a sound as wild and genuine as the landscapes they come from. Merging the technical precision of traditional string music with the improvisational freedom of jam and Americana, Caltucky brings a modern spark to mountain-born roots.
The quartet — Marty Varner (mandolin, vocals), Kyle Kunert (banjo, vocals), Elijah McCullough (fiddle), and Tyler Miles (bass) — has become a rising force on the West Coast circuit, known for their kinetic live shows and boundary-stretching arrangements. Their sets weave blistering instrumentals, harmony-rich originals, and reimagined covers that shift from foot-stomping breakdowns to trancey groove explorations without ever losing the bluegrass heartbeat.
