Об исполнителе:
Roots music string band founded in 2012 by horticulturist Ryan Murphey and Dustin Eiskant, cultivated by classically trained musicians, and fueled by vocalist/bass player Jesse Farrar who is also a hip-hop producer with a fondness for the Four Freshmen. It is this collision of styles and musical vocabularies that informs their fresh approach to bluegrass and gives them an electric live performance vibe that seems to pull more from Vaudeville than the front porch. While they look like a bluegrass band, their musical sensibilities run much deeper and broader, borrowing as much from indie rock and jazz fusion as from Bill Monroe. In 2015 they won the FreshGrass Band contest and found the perfect collaborator in Compass Records co-founder and banjoist and composer, Alison Brown.
