2020 - Special Consensus is celebrating its 45th anniversary as a band this year, and the group truly just keeps getting better. Cahill’s banjo is as solid and as imaginative as ever, while Faris (guitar), Dan Eubanks (bass), and Nate Burie (mandolin) round out the lineup with excellent playing and singing. The band’s sound and arrangements are distinctive in a modern bluegrass scene that sometimes over-relies on a traditional country feel. Guests include Becky Buller, Alison Brown, Michael Cleveland, Robbie Fulks, and Rob Ickes.
