Mipso, an Americana quartet hailing from Chapel Hill, North Carolina, has steadily emerged as a distinct voice in the tapestry of American roots music. Formed at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and originally named Mipso Trio before becoming a quartet, the band consists of Wood Robinson on bass and vocals, Jacob Sharp on mandolin and vocals, Joseph Terrell on guitar and vocals, and Libby Rodenbough on fiddle and vocals. Their sound is rooted in the traditional musical styles of the Carolinas, combining bluegrass, classic country, and Appalachian traditions with a modern sensibility and introspective lyricism.

Mipso's music reflects their Southern heritage while exploring the boundaries of acoustic music. With the release of albums like their self-titled "Mipso (Deluxe Edition)," they have received acclaim for their close harmonies, compelling songwriting, and engaging live performances. Mipso's storytelling and poignant melodies are evident in tracks such as "Book of Fools" and "Every Drop." With a mix of original songs and thoughtful covers, as seen in their renditions of "Dublin Blues" and "I Will Follow You Into The Dark," Mipso continues to expand their audience and influence in the Americana music scene.
