FROM THE PRESS.....


"Lester has a full commanding voice with a lot of dynamic and emotional range, bringing the requisite strength to an up tempo original like 'One Way Track', then, turning more ornamental to bring out the nuances of a slower song like Paul Kennerly's 'First In Line'." - Bluegrass Unlimited
