Bio / Background
This is the Raisin Pickers’ third release, but the first that features the current lineup of Mark and Carol Palms, David Mosher and James Sneyd. Think of the Raisin Pickers as a string band that swings. Or, if you prefer, think of them as songwriters who can go from ballad to bluegrass without missing a musical beat. Handed Down opens with the title cut, a lament for the family farm, skillfully written by founding member Mark Palms. Mark sings and plays guitar, old-time banjo and fiddle throughout this recording. His other song contributions include a delicious number called Chicken Flippin' which celebrates the traditional summer cookout in their hometown of Manchester, Michigan. A cookout so fine ”Home of the Famous Chicken Broil” is engraved on the town’s welcoming road sign. Mark’s song gives ”flippin’ the bird” a whole new meaning. And don’t forget Out Of This World, Mark’s song about....on second thought, I’ll leave that one for you to discover for yourself.
