Punch Brothers are a progressive acoustic quintet led by mandolinist Chris Thile, blending bluegrass roots with classical composition, jazz improvisation, and indie rock into something entirely their own. Their ambitious 2015 release Phosphorescent Blues — produced by T Bone Burnett — showcases their fearless genre-crossing, while Hell on Church Street is a deeply felt tribute to the late bluegrass great Tony Rice. Their 2026 seventh album The Unsung Adventures of Punch Brothers — their first all-instrumental record, featuring fiddler Brittany Haas — is now in stock on vinyl and CD.
