Intro

Cabinet is a seminal bluegrass and Americana outfit hailing from Scranton, Pennsylvania, formed in 2006. The band is central to the 'Newgrass' and jam-grass scene of the Northeastern United States, distinguished by their inclusion of a full drum kit and electric bass alongside traditional acoustic instrumentation like banjo, fiddle, and mandolin.

P. Biondo, the group developed a reputation for high-energy live performances that blend traditional Appalachian influences with the improvisational spirit of the Grateful Dead. Their sound identity is defined by tight three-part vocal harmonies and a rhythmic drive that appeals to both traditionalists and the indie-folk crowd. Over nearly two decades, they have become a staple of the festival circuit, particularly in the Mid-Atlantic and New England regions. Despite a brief hiatus in the late 2010s, their return with 'Silver Sun' and 'The Sugarhouse Sessions' solidified their status as leaders of the regional roots music scene. Note: This artist is frequently confused in metadata with a California-based blackened death metal project of the same name.
