“I predict every bluegrass band in the world is going to be knocking on your door after this [The Twain Shall Meet] is released!”
- Steve, Spring Valley, NY
“I’m very happy I purchased both of these recordings [Lift and Confluence]. Such great musicianship from Art and the band. Such joy in making music! I swear they infected my soul! There is a wonderful sense of immediacy to this recording... and reminds me why I love live music.
“Confluence feels like a journey into the heart and soul of Jason. I’ve only listened to this a couple of times thus far because it’s so raw with emotion! The dude can really rock and his out and out rock tracks are among my favorites.
“The sound quality is breathtaking. In fact, I have no other recording which so clearly puts me in the room with the musicians. Seriously. I was honestly flabbergasted listening the first time. The immediacy is at another level entirely. Kudos.”
- James, Edwardsville, PA
“To cut to the chase, the recording [Equinox] gave me chills in a way that I had not experienced with recorded music since my long lost vinyl days!”
- David, Berwyn, IL
