American Roots Music rediscovered for the 21st century - it's as if The Band of Brothers recorded a Great Lost Folk Album from the 1960's.
Bio / Background
The Band of Brothers' debut CD, "Almost There" - featuring their exquisite interplay of vocals, guitar, mandolin, banjo, bass, & harmonica - is simply stunning. You will find yourself humming & reflecting on these songs days after you first hear them.
Recorded by acclaimed indie producer Jesse Sprinkle, ten of the songs were composed by singer/songwriter Michael Scott Smith; with additional contributions from 12-string guitarist Henry Robin ("Stone's Throw Away"), bass player Alan Fox ("Whisper"), and banjo/mandolin player Jamie Stevens ("Crying Holy" - his arrangement of the traditional spiritual). Woven throughout the CD are the tenor harmonies and guitar of Bruce Bailey.
From review at The Phantom Tollbooth:
Songs of faith. Songs of love. Songs of hope. Songs of war. Songs of peace. A song ("Evangeline") that took Michael Scott Smith twenty years to write. This CD is worth a good listen.

Pleasant to listen togoingup wrote on February 18, 2008
Weak on vocals. If you love strong acoustic guitar, you'll love this.
