Detour is a new bluegrass band hailing from Northern Michigan.  Detour combines original contemporary bluegrass sounds along with great traditional  favorites.  With tight focused harmonies, precision instrumentals, and creative melodies, Detour takes you down a unique bluegrass road.  
Featuring the stellar banjo playing of 2001 National Banjo Champion Mike Sumner, the high lonesome vocals and low lonesome string bass of Zak Bunce, the tasty fiddle playing of Peter Knupfer, the soulful guitar of Scott Zylstra, and the hard driving mandolin and superb song writing of Jeff Rose, Detour has quickly become a standout new bluegrass band --- “a bluegrass joyride”.    
Detour has enjoyed a highly successful first season receiving great critical acclaim at numerous concerts and festivals including Dunegrass, Coopers Glen and Wheatland.  Detour is currently busy in the studio recording their first CD.
 
We invite you to continue with us on the bluegrass road less traveled.  Thanks for visiting!
