Grown from traditional bluegrass roots, Blue Hazard began before any member held a driver's license. Their journey started by playing songs by many different artists. That influence has carried over into songwriting that doesn't focus on genre, but on precise arrangements, moving melodies, and stories with intrigue.

The Minnesota-based group supports a traditional bluegrass composition (banjo, mandolin, guitar, and upright bass) but strives to break the bonds that are typical or expected. All members write music that leads to a diverse original catalog of bluegrass, roots, Americana, pop, jazz, and folk.
