An amazing collection of covers, from Bill Monroe to the Beatles, Coltrane to Jim & Jesse. “…people who love great music and don’t care about labeling it will eat this one up…exquisite.” - The Associated Press
On Looking Back, their second CD, this acoustic trio demonstrates its mastery of the three T's: taste, tone, and technique. Whether their fingers are dancing through a bluegrass standard like Bill Monroe's "Tennessee Blues" or caressing the meditative melody of jazz pianist McCoy Tyner's "Search for Peace," the three musicians fuse elements of jazz, bluegrass, and rock into intriguing new shapes......The sound is so full and rich it's hard to believe there are only three musicians here. Phillips, Grier, and Flinner called this CDLooking Back because they chose songs that they grew up playing. The tunes may be from the past, but their musical vision is decidedly facing the future. -Michael Simmons
