With a new album scheduled for release in early 2017, Yonder Mountain String Band has released a music video from the first known track, "Alison."  The video was filmed using drones, while the band performed at the top of Bridal Veil Falls in Telluride, Colorado.  The band released the video on Monday afternoon by way of debut via Rolling Stone Country.

The new album will be the sixth studio effort for the jam grass veterans, and the second since the departure of Jeff Austin and additions of Allie Kral (fiddle) and Jacob Joliff (mandolin).  The release comes just days before a big YMSB performance at Red Rocks Amphitheatre this weekend with Drive-By Truckers and Preservation Hall Jazz Band.
