CD Reviews

Never a dull moment
Laurel Pen | USA | 08/15/2008
(5 out of 5 stars)

"A delightful variety on this album - because of the changing mix of guest artists and instruments there is never a dull moment nor is there a sense of sameness from one cut to another. However, the songs work as a beautifully-crafted and inspiring whole."
Good Ol' Fashioned Bluegrass Fun
Keegan R. Lerch | Bethlehem, PA | 08/07/2008
(4 out of 5 stars)

"This here is some good ol' fashioned bluegrass. It makes your toes tap and you can feel the rhythm in your body.

There are a lot of up-tempo numbers on here, that showcase the incredible musicians and vocal talents of a slew of guest artists partnered with Tony on his banjo.

A perfect balance of ragin fast tunes with laid-back songs with folksy singing and soulful playing. Banjo, Fiddle, Guitar, Bass, Harmonica: all the makings of a great country bluegrass album.

If you are a fan of folk or bluegrass music, this album is a definite must on your list, as is anything Tony Trischka puts out!"
Pure banjo
Jeffrey A. Hensley | Harrisonburg, VA | 05/08/2009
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Tony takes us through the world of banjo, and all of it's ebbs and flows. This is not only an exciting CD to listen to, it's a great picture at the versatility of the banjo and Mr. Trischka's own skill and love of the the instrument."
