“The Western North Carolina quintet is this band of melodic pirates, roaring down the highways and backroads of Southern Appalachia in search of a stage to play, perhaps another kindred spirit to collaborate with in the sacred art of songwriting and creating something (beautiful and permanent) from nothing (thin air and momentary inspiration).”

"SFTRB are unique somehow, and it’s a challenge to define exactly how. The best way I can describe it is that they’re

sort of a bluegrass chamber orchestra. They’re a quintet of first chairs. Know what I mean? They’re each better than

anyone else on their instruments, so they don’t turn in and compete with each other. They’re incredibly collaborative,

seamlessly so, and it comes across. They don’t waste energy trying to out-do each other, the way most bands do."
