Another bluegrass/punk band you might want to check out is .357 String Band. Their shows were best described as a blend of rednecks, bikers, and punks and the band seems to pretty much look that way as well. They were relatively short lived though, disbanding sometime in 2011 or 2012, and only releasing three albums, all of which are pretty good.

I'll check them both out, thanks!

Fair warning: The guy is a Christian and his lyrics definitely reflect that, but most of the time he's very subtle about it and not in-your-face or preachy... think Sufjan Stevens. And when he is overt about it, it's usually done in a very poetic way, with somewhat mystical sounding lyrics.
But if that doesn't turn you off, you're in for a treat. All of his work is top notch.
