A fresh new band from Hackney, London, mixing up 'Bluegrass' and 'Old Time' tunes with a modern twist, and giving some classics and originals the 'Bluegrass treatment'. Soulful vocals and tight arrangements from a classic acoustic string band line up, the band bridge the gap between vintage RnB and Appalachian mountain music. The band had their debut festival performance at Glastonbury 2010
