Grassland String Band is an americana-bluegrass band from Athens, Gerogia started in 2013. They released an independent EP in 2014 entitled Before the Feast.

Background
Grassland String Band (oftentimes referred to as GSB) was formed in early 2013 as a project between Jody Daniels, Matt McClain and Michael Lesousky. Jody met Michael at a barbecue restaurant in Athens, Georgia. Michael had been writing and playing music for over a decade. Jody and Matt had played country and gospel music together over the course of 20 years. Jody and Matt's band Buttermilk Revival found itself disbanded. Thus, GSB was born. Over the course of the Spring, Nathan and Todd joined the band. By the fall, they began performing around Athens, Georgia.

January 2014 saw the release of the debut album, "Before The Feast" funded by a successful Kickstarter campaign. Grassland String Band has been entertaining live music fans in many of Athens beloved venues such as the 40 Watt Club, Melting Point, New Earth Music Hall, the Green Room, and the Georgia Theatre for over a year.
