"Unswervingly traditional
and terrifically tight..." - The Isthmus, Madison, WI |
The most recent CD by the band, Live @ Mother Fools, catches the excitement of a live show at one of our favorite venues. Bassist Josh Perkins contributes his much requested original number “On Bended Knee”. The recording gives a nice representation of the Nob Hill Boys live shows with a mixture of traditional tunes, originals, instrumentals and gospel quartets.

"...pretty much cements the Boys' reputation as one of the region's top bluegrass outfits." - Wisconsin State Journal |
This second release from the NHB came out in 2001 and featured the band as a five-piece unit with the addition of fiddler Paul Kienitz. Three of the Boys contributed original material to this project as well as some unique material from Kilby Snow, Red Sovine and the Red Clay Ramblers. The Kenny Baker fiddle tune, Bluegrass in the Backwoods, was recently featured as background music on Wisconsin Public Radio’s “To The Best of Our Knowledge”.

“Country Blues” is the first recording by the Nob Hill Boys. Released in 1999, it features the original lineup of the band as a quartet. Len Springer appears as guest fiddler on a number of cuts. The CD has a nice mixture of standards, originals and a few tunes featuring John Fabke’s clawhammer banjo playing.
