FAREWELL TRION by Chris Coole and Ivan Rosenberg - February 2012 U.S. tour: Oregon, California
"Strong material, rich vocals, and highly accomplished musicianship place this project at the top of the list. The careful juxtaposition of the old and new bring a depth to the performances that only comes with a true knowledge of the genre. When a CD keeps working its way to the number one spot in your listening priorities, it has to have that special something." -- Bluegrass Unlimited Magazine
"For a 'two-man' folk festival, you could look to Doc Watson and David Holt, or, on the strength of their first album together, Chris Coole and Ivan Rosenberg... While Coole hammers out a rock-steady groove, Rosenberg's dobro in effect assumes the fiddles 'voice' in the arrangements. The result is a unique sonic melange of old time and bluegrass--sort of 'Josh Graves meets Kyle Creed.' ...This is a well-chosen collection of old-time music expertly performed by a pair of very talented musicians." -- Banjo Newsletter
