Another Great Concert

We just got in from another great concert featuring The Websters (sisters Chris and Cassie Webster) with Scott Nygaard and Brittany Haas. Excellent bluegrass with some pop thrown in,beautiful sibling harmonies, kinetic flat-picking guitar work, and some
amazing fiddle playing from a twenty years old prodigy. Chris and Cassie delivered a breathtaking version of "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" with Chris accompanying onukulele (yes, ukulele ). Scott and Brittany served up some outstanding versions of old time fiddle tunes, given a fine contemporary twist, and the four of them joined together to send the whole audience into stunned reverie with their gorgeous music making. A truly magical evening.
My pictures aren't the best (the lighting seemed very low), but they may give you a taste of what the performance was like. You can find Chris at www.chriswebstermusic.com, ScottNygaard at www.scottnygaard.com, and Brittany at www.brittanyhaas.com. Individually they are wonderful, and together they were unbelievable.
