Usually don't do news releases around string band projects that happen to include mandolin because there are just too many of them. But Adrian Gross is among us and this project recorded during the pandemic in Canada is a really good story and the music is fantastic. Wanted to make sure this one received the attention it deserves. We encourage you to give a listen and consider ordering. Officially released later this week.
Adeline brings together five musicians from four of today’s most beloved bands in old-time, bluegrass, and folk music. Adrian Gross on mandolin (The Slocan Ramblers), Mark Kilianski on guitar (Golden Shoals), Sam Allison on upright bass and bass harmonica (Sheesham and Lotus), John Showman on fiddle, and Chris Coole on the banjo (The Lonesome Ace Stringband). Captured at a 3-day recorded jam in the winter of 2021, the group play a selection of 15 old-time fiddle tunes with an overwhelming feeling of freedom and joy.

I've watched John and Chris play tunes in a boat adrift on some lake.......it's both amazing and frightening enough to be awe inspiring.

Tuned down a whole step, it felt pretty slinky and good tuned that way for this tune.
