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.

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

There is no beauty in this music.

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!

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.
