I had an email yesterday from the assistant station manager at WJFF out of Jeffersonville, NY:hydropowered community radio serving the Catskills, Northeast Pennsylvania and the Upper Delaware River Valley
They were letting me know that they have been playing our CD on one of their bluegrass/stringed instrument shows, and that they were enjoying it. The show is called Jambalaya, and it airs Saturdays 1-2. Their archives are here.
As I was checking out the show, one tune caught my ear, as it featured a drone introduction with acoustic guitar playing a kind of 'alap' into a twisty melody with a punchy rhythmic arrangement. This sound seems very complementary to our approach.
It turned out to be "Scott Nygaard with Crow Molly." Here's their CD at CDBaby. From their short bio:
Original contemporary string band music by Grammy-nominated guitarist Scott Nygaard and young string virtuosos Joe Walsh (mandolin) and Lauren Rioux (violin) that combines jazz, Celtic, folk, and bluegrass influences.
I'll definitely be checking this out some more. Thanks, WJFF!
