This Week's Reader's Favorite Post
John fell in love with the blues as a child when his father and an older cousin played guitar and sang at night after a hard day in the fields. His mother moved to Chicago to secure a job and support her family. She promised to bring John and his sister to the big city when they reached age 18, leaving them with family. Depressed and lonely, young Primer frequently went into the neighboring woods, where he cried his troubles away and began singing the blues in solitude. He eventually built himself a diddley bow on the side of his grandmother's house out of broom wire, two nails and a brick and began accompanying himself as he sang, eventually playing for dimes and quarters in his schoolyard. After listening to Jimmy Reed , Little Milton, B.B. King , Albert King and Muddy Waters on his grandmother's record player, his biggest dream was to play alongside Muddy Waters one day. 🎵 LISTEN & SUPPORT THE ALBUM ▶ Listen to Album Samples (Clic...

@ The Big Song Music House!

Stephanie Bettman is at the least a triple threat. An accomplished
writer, singer, and fiddler: her lyrics are infused with wit and wisdom, poetry
and insight. Vocally she draws comparison to the soaring soprano of Joan Baez
and the plaintive emotion of Emmylou Harris. Meanwhile, her fiddling, which
combines elements of bluegrass and jazz, is inspired by such masters as Stephane
Grappelli, Byron Berline and Johnny Gimble.
Luke
Halpin is a renowned multi-instrumentalist. A master of the guitar and
the mandolin, impressive on fiddle, banjo, and adept at nearly anything he picks
up. Halpin draws inspiration from the likes of Sam Bush, Mark O'Connor and Tony
Rice and holds his own in comparison. A dynamic and sensitive vocalist himself,
the harmony blend he and Ms Bettman achieve is chilling and at times simply
transcendent. His quirky sense of humor is a perfect foil to Stephanie's dry
witty presence.

Halpin on Youtube:
