Greebo brought the strings, the audience brought the hoops

Greebo In Chico, California, bluegrass music has found a niche at Woodstock's Pizza with the quartet Greebo, who put a lot of joy into the plucking of strings on Thursday nights. As the night goes on, the clapping gets louder. During an instrumental, two women got up and started to hula-hoop. The name Greebo comes from an English slang word that means dirtbag. Greebo is made up of vocalist and guitarist Bruce MacMillan, bassist and vocalist Nate LeFranchi, fiddler and guitarist Britt Smith and Michael Ansolabehere, who provides vocals and plays the mandolin.

  Track of the Week

Our two tracks for the week start off with Cosmic Cowboys and their new release "One Last Whisper." We're especially loving the Hiro Remix which is why we've added it to the Hoop Sounds iPod below. Check it out and other mixes and download yours on iTunes by clicking:

Next we cool things down with a track for some dreamier hooping. The track is called "Ruby" from the new release from Ali Farka Touré & Toumani Diabaté of Mali. We think you're going to like it. Give it a listen on the iPod and get your copy on iTunes by clicking:
