Synopsis

Album Description
Meet Crooked Still, the hot young alternative bluegrass group on a mission to bend the boundaries of traditional music. The unlikely combination of banjo, cello, and double bass drives this low lonesome band, whose soaring vocals and high-wire solos have enraptured audiences all over North America and Ireland since 2001. Crooked Still, was released at the prestigious Falcon Ridge Folk Festival in July, 2004 and was the top-selling CD at the festival that year. Following the success of this first festival appearance, Crooked Still has appeared at concert halls, nightclubs, coffeehouses, and festivals in twenty-three states and three different countries. This grassroots endeavor frequently lands Hop High among the top ten best selling CD's at the online independent megastore CD Baby.

CD Reviews

Why does Amazon have two seperate prices for this?

"Okay, wonderful band. Saw them in concert. The Doc who plays banjo is...a little eccentric, probably on purpose. But once they started playing, it was delicious.



With that said, WHY DOES AMAZON HAVE IT LISTED FOR BOTH $6.99 *AND* $9.99?? Who would seriously buy the 9.99 version simply because it's from a later edition CD? They are the exact same thing!



WHY AMAZON WHY??



Anyway, buy it--but get the 6.99 version."
HELL YEAH

"Wow... I grew up with old skool country in the 60's... and the flavour of this music is incredibly refreshing, combining the old skool feeling with Crooked Still's original sound (love the cello!)."
