Bill MacKay and Nathan Bowles Keys - Keys [LP]

Vinyl LP pressing. Bill MacKay and Nathan Bowles' debut is well titled: keys are what they play and keys unlock things too. Their trad bonafides are balanced with inquisitive playing that adds surprise as a formal songwriting and arranging tool. Spirited 21st century folk music made of equal parts bluegrass, classical, country, gospel and improv.
