- Sundance TV did a short film documentary in 2002 on the band Nickle Creek.
Nickel Creek (formerly known as the Nickel Creek Band) is an American Americana music group consisting of Chris Thile (mandolin), and siblings Sara Watkins (fiddle) and Sean Watkins (guitar). Formed in 1989 in Southern California, they released six albums between 1993 and 2006. The band broke out in 2000 with a platinum-selling self-titled album produced by Alison Krauss, earning a number of Grammy and CMA nominations.
Their fourth album “This Side” won a 2003 Grammy Award for Best Contemporary Folk Album. Following a fifth studio album and a compilation album, the band announced an indefinite hiatus at the conclusion of their 2007 Farewell (For Now) Tour.[1] Following numerous solo projects from the band members, Nickel Creek reformed in 2014 with announcement of a new album and subsequent tour.
In 2002, the band released their fourth album, This Side, produced by Alison Krauss. It was a departure from their previous, purely bluegrass releases. The core bluegrass influence remained, but with other genres, such as indie rock and folk rock, and they included cover songs-"Spit on a Stranger" by Pavement and "Should've Known Better" by Carrie Newcomer.[14]
A review in Allmusic said that "Thile and the Watkins siblings' originals, easily outdo the likes of folk-rockers Dave Matthews and Hootie & the Blowfish, while forging a new style to rejuvenate a genre that has always been a bit of a dark horse."[15]
This Side entered the Billboard 200 at No. 18 on the chart, and at No. 2 on the magazine's Top Country Albums chart.[16] The album was certified gold the following year by the RIAA.[17] The success of This Side earned the group a Grammy Award for Best Contemporary Folk Album.[5][11] The band was featured in Rolling Stone's "Best Of 2002" edition.[11]
During their 2002 and 2003 tour, Nickel Creek opened five shows for John Mayer in November 2002,[18] and toured with Gillian Welch and David Rawlings earlier in the year.[19] In 2003, Nickel Creek appeared on the Béla Fleck and the Flecktones album Little Worlds.
I discovered them in 2001. I tagged along with friends to a concert without knowing anything about them. I’ve been enamored with them since. Love their oldest tunes but it’s always great to see musicians grow and change, too. I’ll see them live for the first time in 22 years next month. They are so special.
Their catalogue of songs is truly timeless. Their music has aged like fine wine.
Rumor has it the audience is still feebly clapping to the beat to this day haha.. all love.
I love Sean's style. Every piece he plays is so special.
When I first read nickel Creek I got the CD from the library ride my bike everywhere listening to the CD over and over and over it was simply amazing yay! Jeopardy's on got to go now 🌎🚴♀️🎶🎶🎶

I remember seeing them about 10yrs ago at the Wilten Theathet in L.A Calif. They were well worth keeping the ticket stub which I still have in 2021.such talent. I wish I could do that concert over again. Oh well. But it left me with great memories to look back on.
God given talent. Much love, from a fellow musician. ❤🎶🎵🎸🎻

Nickel Creek covering Nirvana song lithium,was awesome!
A buddy of mine called them “Hee Haw: The Next Generation.” He was a big fan, though, and he was only kidding.
matur suksma untuk video ini! salam dari pulau bali

9:27 is that a different variation of St. Ann's Reel? I would love to know if anyone has heard this version or can point me in the direction of this?
Never heard this called St. Ann's Reel. It's Sweeney's Buttermilk, by Brendan McGlinchey.
Does anyone know where I can listen to the full version of lithium nickel creek cover?
Chris Stockwell, please out of respect for these musicians and their great band, correct the misspelling in the title of this video.
Sorry for the mishap on the title. It is corrected.
Excuse me, the last album is from 2014 ("A Dotted Line", nine years after "Why Should The Fire Die").
I didn't create it, Just posted it from where I found it on a vhs tape. Sundance TV is who broadcast it.
How would they have known this would be the case in 2002?
