Music by: The Old 78s
Featuring Ray & Melanie Palmer, Sarah White, and Carole Anne Rose
The Old 78's music recreates the WILD ENERGY and DRIVING FORCE of the great Hillbilly Fiddle Bands. It is almost impossible to describe the fun that these musicians can create with really big saxophones, and banjos ranging in size from surprisingly small to extremely huge, not to mention fiddles and a kazoo.
