Description
The Earl Brothers, based in San Francisco and led by banjo master Robert Earl Davis, have been delving into the dark side of bluegrass for more than a decade. Their music, like the blues, has that paradoxical effect of taking you so deep into the mire that you come out feeling a little better than you did before.Bill Evans is an internationally recognized five-string banjo life force. Bill successfully bridges traditional and contemporary sounds and playing techniques, creating a new music that is firmly within the bluegrass tradition but draws upon a broad knowledge of classical, jazz and world music.
