About Jake Leg:

Rooted in tradition but with a fierce commitment to innovation, Jake Leg forges a unique path through the world of acoustic music. Consisting of award-winning musicians Eric Wiggs on guitar and vocals, Dylan McCarthy on mandolin and vocals, Justin Hoffenberg on fiddle, and Aaron Hoffenberg on bass, Jake Leg breathes new life into modern progressive bluegrass, crafting a captivating landscape of high-level instrumental ability and thoughtful songwriting. Drawing something new from the well of tradition, the band takes the listener on a journey through rich narratives and evocative melodies, proving that within every note lies both a connection to the past and the promise of a bold musical future.

Since forming in 2021, the band has quickly garnered national attention. They were nominated for 2024 IBMA Momentum Band of the Year shortly after the release of their all-original, debut album Fire on the Prairie, and have been named one of “10 of the Top Colorado Bluegrass Bands” by Denver Westword for the last two years running. With steadily growing momentum and their sophomore album set for release in Spring 2026, Jake Leg has shown themselves to be a compelling voice in the ever-expanding world of bluegrass.
