[iceaxe56]

is that the right name for this song or what

[gwells90]

how can you not love a girl who plays the banjo, look at gillian welch

[conboybp]

So Dope

[metavoia]

This is one of the most alluring songs and performances that I have ever heard1

[midnightmoonshine]

Bela's scales sure do be some strange things. I'm sure Rosetta is twirling her boa in appreciation.

[MrMatthewsullivan]

I'm happy that folk music has retained its own identity and hasn't merged with every other form that becomes popular- as so many have done. Ovbiously these are talented musicians and the sound is fresh and new, but personally I can't say I'm particularly enthralled as some seem to be.

[smokindog]

Are you guys playing in Greenville SC soon? PLEASE!!

[smokindog]

Damn thats good!!!

[jewlsky27]

i got to meet them...

they're amazing...

[wils7878]

What an amazing group of people collaborating with a refreshing sound that proves "individual think" and creativity is not lost

[mamistar24]

Just saw them at the Dunegrass Music Festival in Empire, MI. DEFINITELY the "pinnacle" of the lineup! Amazing juxtaposition of strings, bluegrass, folk, and just downright meaningful music. Awesome.

[artichoke25]

This whole album is superb!

[pianoben]

Woo... chills down the spine! What an powerful piece!

[phylliserck]

strange indeed

[kissborho]

I think Ben and Casey are the best people in this band. I am only here to hear them play ..they are so good. I am sure they could play anything if they chose to. Two very gifted artists.

Their instruments are gorgeous and they are both mesmorizing to the extreme. My eyes are locked in on both of them,because I think they are the best artists in this quartet!

[Xerxes4242]

Each one of them is incredibly talented

[gigigleo]

I think the instrumentation also sounded crappy most of the time.

There is no beauty in this music.

[ycylesi]

Her fingers barely move on the banjo, and her voice barely moves.

This is laughable. Her voice sucks. she sings like a total amateur. They need to take this to church. This is not pro. these people must love amateur hour.

no wonder this is not selling.

[ycylesi]

This is kind of innovative. Only problem her voice doesn't fit. her voice is not artistic, has a bland flavor. Her voice seems to not fit most of what they play.

It is like amateur hour with professionals. Doesn't seem to gel. I really think this is good though, too bad the ordinary melody line and bland voice takes the song down a couple pegs. Good attempt though. I like it.

[baisermo]

Nice instrumentation

[timjmoran]

wow!! that is wild.. like an Unholy marriage between a Chamber group and bluegrass.. what a mind-blowing roll Bela plays at 3.30! Saw He

& Abigail do a duet show a few months back at

a nearby church-Bela played 10 minutes of Unaccomapanied Bach Partitas.. inCREDible!

[Xerxes4242]

This camera cut is almost always on the wrong instrument for what's going on

[tinyrayoflight]

I love their rythm...it's amazing!

[jidenlynne]

Absolutely awesome!!

[jgodin312]

Goosebumps I have.
