although Peter Rowan played with another Marin County band, Jerry Garcia’s band, Old and in the Way.

My wife’s brother ran with one of the brothers way back in his banjo days.

Another band clue:

When the band recorded with Elvis Costello they were under contract with another label so they changed their name to The Shamrocks on the album credits. The Shamrocks is a really clever clue if you know what a shamrock is.
