Cross Country Grass was part of a new wave of bluegrass that took hold in Canada during the 1980s. It included bands like Cody, the Dixie Flyers, Grassworks, the Humber River Valley Boys, Station Road, Streets & Hills, and Whiskey Jack in southern Ontario, Bluegrass 4 and Mountain Meadow in Moncton, Ladies’ Choice Bluegrass Band in Halifax, and the White River Bluegrass Band in Montreal.
