”Beyond Appalachian, Beyond Blues, Beyond Folk” Since their collective debut at the Kennedy Center in 2008, the quartet’s sweet vocal harmonies, warm presence and energetic delivery are a mesmerizing and memorable audience experience. The award-winning songwriter’s masterfully crafted songs and stories are heartfelt and intelligent, grounded in rural American life and infused with diverse influences. Including founding Nitty Gritty Dirt Band member Les Thompson, their eclectic arrangements blend traditional acoustic instruments like banjo, upright bass, bouzouki and congas with the energy of drums and electric guitars to create a “vast expanse of song and sound.”
