5 Cent Nickel is a bluegrass duo blending seasoned musicianship with roots-driven energy and improvisational spirit. Featuring Fred Scholl—lead guitarist of the Dude of Life Band, who’s shared the stage with Jon Fishman—and David Gross, virtuoso mandolinist of Blue Plate Special, who’s performed alongside Bobby Weir and Sammy Hagar, this duo brings serious pedigree to an intimate acoustic setting.

With tight interplay, rich tone, and a deep love for the craft, 5 Cent Nickel delivers a stripped-down sound that’s both refined and full of life. 🎶
