  • "At some point it literally comes down to sitting in a room with a guitar... if you want to get on stage, then do. If you want to practice, sometimes it’s going to be hard. Music is about a feeling and it’s about having fun." In this episode, sisters Rebecca and Megan Lovell of Larkin Poe discuss their earliest introduction to bluegrass, musical inspirations, and their relationship with Ernie Ball.
    String Theory is a web series from Ernie Ball that explores the sonic origins of some of music's most innovative players.
    Larkin Poe plays Ernie Ball Regular Slinky Coated Titanium RPS: ernieb.al/2HdIFkt

    My wife and I just saw them 6 times or more on the KTBA Blues Cruise. They are best live and are nicer in person than they seem on media, if that is possible. Their tone is outstanding and they set up their own equipment. That they seem to have so much fun on stage is a great part of their attraction. They met, signed stuff, spoke with and took pictures with everyone who wanted to see them and I believe they had the most fans on the ship.

      Randy C I totally agree. I had a chance to see them back home in Atlanta a few years ago, and got to spend a few minutes with them at a meet and greet beforehand. Truly some of the nicest folks, and easily one of the best live shows I have ever seen. So tight musically. Megan truly is a great lap steel player, and Rebecca’s vocal range is unbelievable.

    I love their talent, I love their sound, and I love their attitude. Sometimes, I call them, Snarky Poe, because they because they will let you know. In some ways, I hope they never change but then again, just when I think they just can not get any better... they do.

      I totally agree. Most artists who are outside of the Mainstream do tend to make tremendous improvements and experiment. Unlike the “chosen few” stars who are forced to maintain what made them famous.

    I love the basic simplicity of there rigs. I have spent decades using nothing more than a preamp to saturate my amps input stages, a cry baby wah, and maybe a flanger. With my electric mandolin I plug straight into the PA. Rebecca Megan produce such great tone with such basic equipment it's a testament to their talent.

    I love them so much lol/smh BASICALLY the only people doing blues I give a shit about rn. Ida Mae's pretty solid... Gary Clark, Jr., I suppose... Some of Hozier's stuff... but I dunno... Too many guitar hero wannabes, not enough "junkyard poets" as Rebecca *brilliantly* puts it here. Deeply glad these women exist!
