Rapidgrass is an American bluegrass band founded in Golden, Colorado in 2012. Although they are widely considered a bluegrass band, their genre of music can best be described as "rapidgrass" due to its furious pace and its wide range of influences including gypsy jazz, bluegrass, swing and classical music. The lineup includes Mark Morris (guitar, vocals), Coleman Smith (violin, mandolin, vocals), Carl Meinecke (upright bass, tenor banjo, vocals), and Alex Johnstone (mandolin, fiddle, vocals), and Billy Cardine (dobro, vocals, recording producer).
