    Bit of a running gag with these guys on some of their vids. The accordion player always turns up late.............well, right on time actually, in an unusual fashion, love it , love it, love it.

    Don't feel bad man I'm from Southern United States and I thought they were a local band until the accordion came up I knew something was going on but I had to watch a lot more of their videos before I found out the real truth and that really blew me away anyhow I really did dig their music but then again I'm a big fan of bluegrass and rock and roll these guys are the Perfect Blend!!

    They are the nicest of guys, saw them twice last year in Helsinki, outdoors in July, indoors in November, it was also a live stream. Just days before all gigs were cancelled due to the pandemic. They were selling their own merchandise so it gave me the opportunity to talk with them for quite a while, smallish venues, that helped. They now have a different drummer and bass player, both great musicians like the previous ones.

    If Young, Young and Johnson didn't return their royalty cheque to Steve 'N' Seagulls, then I believe the surviving members of AC/DC should be subjected to 'High Voltage'. This 'Live' music, great filming, a barrel of fun and a perfect example of when composers should be proud to support new talent! Angus/Brian - upload your support.

    During quarantine I’ve either been listening to symphonic metal or bluegrass. Nothing soothes my soul like watching some doc Watson and friends. I found these guys too. I told them they should be state side playing at Merlefest. I think both doc and Merle are upstairs grinning from ear to ear listening to these guys. I can hear doc saying “son that boys playing an anvil” with that grin of his.
