The journey from the band's early days as a "rad & trad bluegrass band" to where they are now has come via a healthy dose of influences from the likes of Sam Bush, Jerry Douglas, and Bela Fleck & The Flecktones — all artists who have pushed the boundaries of acoustic music.
Dan Bui (mandolin/vocals), Chris Sartori (bass/vocals), and Anh Phung (flute/vocals) - along with their fourth member Kathleen Parks (lead vocals/fiddle) - have been scattered since March due to the pandemic. But as it happens, Bui is a skilled audio engineer in addition to being an excellent mandolin player, so the separation hasn't stopped their ability to create music together. For our live session, they shared some fresh 'at-home' recordings of tunes from their new album called Right Now.
