John Reischman & The Jaybirds

 

New Recording

“I have loved John Reischman & the Jaybirds since I was a kid growing up in the west coast bluegrass scene so I was excited to hear that they have a brand new record! “The Salish Sea” seamlessly incorporates old-time, bluegrass, gospel, and Americana while keeping taste and musicality at the forefront. After twenty-five years as a band you can still hear so much fun and excitement on every track, which is a testament to the chemistry these five singular musicians share. This new album is a joy to listen to— I love how each member of the band contributes original material and new arrangements of old favorites so that everyone truly gets a chance to shine. “The Salish Sea” is going to be in heavy rotation for me and I highly recommend you give it a listen!”

On That Other Green Shore showcases an accomplished, experienced band at the peak of their powers, with musicianship of the very highest order.

The Jaybirds put their own particular stamp on bluegrass, old time and acoustic roots music, with a satisfying blend of traditional and modern styles, and they also give the impression that they really enjoy playing together. There’s plenty here to please both bluegrass traditionalists and lovers of modern American folk music, especially for those with an appreciation of great harmony singing as well as masterful instrumental playing.
