Acoustic Syndicate is a rock/folk/bluegrass band from North Carolina formed in 1992.  They have toured nationally in the US, including appearances at Farm Aid and Bonnaroo.  Their sound is characterized by three-part vocal harmony and complex polyrhythmic banjo playing.  Lyrically, the group often discusses themes relating to subsistence, sustainablility and quality of life.  The McMurry family comes from a small family farm in Cleveland County, NC.  They have been farming the same region that their ancestors settled over 200 years ago.
