Album Review
>>
The old time folkies weren't all granola and peace and love as the times might imply, and they weren't the burn outs and charlatans "Mighty Wind" implied. This duo of music educators from Detroit (who make you think they never heard of funk) love early 60s folk music and bring it in an unashamed, unabashed fashion coming across as an idealized version of what was, but with chops and passion that grab your attention and just make you say ‘wow!". Ain't no "Barbara Allen", "Leather winged Bat" or other folk music scare clichés on board here. This is a wonderful nu folk duo that knows how to shake off the dust and the stigma to serve up an incredibly hot session that leaves you looking forward to the next one. Well done. 06/23/12
