If you are interested in bluegrass-jazz fusion you have:
- Bela Fleck and the Flecktones (this is seriously knockout music)
- Alison Brown Quartet
The album, "The Telluride Sessions", brings together some of the big players in the contemporary bluegrass mafia.

and includes Jerry Douglas and Mark O'Connor who didn't get a mention yet.
If you are looking for something to do in late April that will allow you to cover a lot of ground, how about hopping across the pond to:
www.merlefest.org
if tickets are still available? If not, there's always next year. The best time to buy tickets is actually in November.
A band I have heard on the radio that sounded good was IIIrd Tyme Out (3rd Time Out).
