A little honky-tonk, a little bluegrass and a lot of toe-tapping during this performance from Mipso.
On the surface, the quartet Mipso may seem like a traditional folk-bluegrass band with its exquisite harmonies, melodies and instrumentation. Zoom in, however, and you’ll also hear layers of modern sounds and influences. In this episode, band members Jacob Sharp and Joseph Terrell discuss coming back to NC to play together, crafting a live record and the Japanese origin of the band’s unique name.

- A part of what makes like being shaped by sound, it's not just the music, it's the, like the infrastructure of the community.
And one thing I feel really lucky about, being a North Carolinian, and someone who makes music strongly associated with North Carolina is that part of the reason we have such a great scene is because of the myriad of things that surround it.
