Chris Thile 11.19.06

Chris Thile, perhaps best known as the jubilant mandolin player for Nickle Creek, came to the Grey Eagle on Sunday in support of his solo album, 'How to Grow A Woman From the Ground.' Backed by the How to Grow a Band, Chris treated the packed house to an excellent show of original numbers, as well as covers of Gillian Welch's 'Wayside' and a lively rendition of the classic Band tune, 'Ophelia.'
