When the Punch Brothers aren’t performing as a band, they are out touring the country as solo artists.  Now Noam and Chris have another band to help share even more music.

Noam Pikelny, Andrew Marlin, Chris Eldridge, Greg Garrison, and Alex Hargreaves are better known as Mighty Poplar and have just released their self-titled debut album.  And beginning May 8, they will be heading out on a tour.
