"... Proving once again that contemporary bluegrass can expand its borders without losing its integrity. The music of the McKrells is hip and smart, thoughtful yet fun, and yes, the roots are intact ,"
Julie Koehler, Bluegrass Unlimited
"..The McKrells reputation looms larger with each passing day, and deservedly so. Who can match their unique ,passionate and almost frighteningly powerful mix of Celtic melodies , worldbeat rhythms and hot bluegrass picking. Nobody."
Michael Eck, The Times Union.
