About Crying Uncle Bluegrass Band
Crying Uncle Bluegrass Band is a Northern California group built around brothers Miles and Teo Quale of Alameda, on fiddle and mandolin. Bassist Andrew Osborn and flatpicker Ian Ly, the 2023 National Flat Pick Guitar Champion, complete the lineup. Their sets range across bluegrass, Dawg music, jazz and their own tunes.
The brothers started out as a duo in 2016 and formed the full band in 2017. Both hold national fiddle contest titles. In 2019 Marty Stuart invited them to play with his Fabulous Superlatives at the Ryman Auditorium, and that year they also appeared at the Grand Ole Opry as guests of Connie Smith.
The band's records are Crying Uncle (2018), Monroe Bridge (2020), produced by Keith Little with Chad Manning and Sharon Gilchrist as guests, the EP Till I Dance Again with You (2021) and The Thing of Dreams (2022). In 2023 the International Bluegrass Music Association named them Momentum Band of the Year, and they played at David Grisman's Bluegrass Music Hall of Fame induction.
