This is one of the greatest renditions of "Auld Lang Syne" I've heard. It's kind of a bluegrass / Americana mix with a great fiddle and (I think) ukulele.
Of all things, I heard it a few minutes ago on an Accuweather review of New Years celebrations around the world and Shazam identified it for me. It was recorded in 2006

Happy New Year, everybody. Here's to a future where Brandon is just a horrible and fading memory!
There isn’t much information about this band on the web, but I found they played at the “Spokane Folklore Society’s” Fall 2006 festival. The Folklore Society’s description is “Silver Wood and Steel (Athol, ID) old time, bluesy bluegrass and Americana .”
What a coincidence — Athol, Idaho is just 16 miles north of us!
Thank you for the post.
Here is my favorite by Sissel.
