They are a 2004 International Bluegrass Music Association showcase band and the song, "Silver Quarter," from their debut album, Saints and Strangers, spent twelve months on "Bluegrass Unlimited" magazine's national bluegrass survey chart. Their second album, Mojave River, was greeted with rave reviews and appeared on the Americana Music Association chart, the Freeform American Roots chart, the Euro-Americana chart, and the Roots Music Report chart. The band also teaches workshops at festivals and camps and has toured in the U.S., Canada, and the United Kingdom. For more information, see Chris's web site
