One of the most talented groups I've heard in a while. Been listening to both of their albums "40 Days" and "Firecracker" as part of my rotation and I have to tell you, they are excellent.

Not only that, but the albums are recorded very well. Definitely worth the listen if you like folk music with amazing singers.
Lovin that music year after year.

    Big faves of mine. They were on A Prairie Home Companion just this past Saturday. They're frequent guests.

    I'd love to see them live sometime.

    Everyone with a "hi-fi" should, at the very least, listen to the coda of 40 Days, The Parting Glass. Outstanding a capella in terms of both performance and sound quality.

    FWIW, I far prefer 40 Days to Firecracker.

    You and me both.
    Check your lips at the door woman. Shake your hips like battleships. Yeah, all the white girls trip when I sing at Sunday service.

    Not me, but de gustibus non est disputandum, as they say...
