His f ather\, legendary mandolinist\, composer\, and producer\, David Grisman\, was constantly having friends come over to his home studio for recording s essions and rehearsals. These friends\, such as Doc Watson\, Jerry Garcia\ , John Hartford\, Mike Seeger\, and Tony Rice all left an impression on th e younger Grisman and inspired him to pursue a life making music with his many talented friends. Sam Grisman Project was created to shed light on th e music that Sam grew up around\, and highlight that music’s influence o n the members of the collective and in the greater music community. The ba nd’s shows create a safe space where the band and audience can bask in t he shared love and reverence for the great music and musicians who continu e to inspire us all.
