The Hackensaw Boys are from Charlottesville, Virginia and are inspired by punk, bluegrass, and old-time music. They formed as a quartet consisting of Tom Peloso, David Sickmen, Rob Bullington, and Robbie St. Ours in the fall of 1999. Since settling on a six member line up they've toured relentlessly and signed with an independent record label.
In the words of Robert 'Mahlon' Bullington the band derived their name from a combination of 'hack' and 'saw', describing the hacking motion used when playing the mandolin and the sawing motion used when drawing the bow across the fiddle.
