One of our recent interesting finds is MySpace friend, the Mideando String Quartet, hailing from Italy, an intriguing blend of European Folk music, Bluegrass, American Pop, and some original compositions. Using acoustic instruments as mandolin, octave mandolin, cello, guitar, bass guitar they create a truly unique sound, with an almost "rock star" attitude and delivery. The group recently performed at the 2007 IBMA after a successful US tour and nearly five years of consistent awards and accolades in the European Folk scene.
