Sunday Acoustic Brunch-2.27.11-Punch Brothers

A 'tweet' from Chris Thile just about an hour ago- "I thought I'd been living, folks, I really did, but that was before I experienced the genius of Piano Pat at Sip N' Dip in Great Falls, MT."

We now officially know that the kid is cool.

Chris Thile has been the public eye for years now. Between Nickel Creek, his solo adventures and Punch Brothers he has a busy touring schedule as well as lays tracks in the studio for many others and performs with those at the top of their game. The founding member of both Nickel Creek and Punch Brothers  is busy, in demand and uber successful. He also surrounds himself with the best musicians out there.  All this and he just turned 30.

There is a lot a great information on Chris and the talented group of bandmates that call themselves the Punch Brothers at
