There's a nice write-up about it here.
Maverick magazine's review (April
2009) reckoned
it's worth FIVE STARS.

see what they had to say.
We had a wonderful time at BROADSTAIRS FOLK WEEK.
Two great gigs to packed houses,
and we loved sharing the bill with Ben Paley and Tab Hunter and the Tanglefoot Appalachian Dancers.
Some kind souls have put videos of our
Albion Gardens set up on YouTube.
Plus we made some lovely new friends.
In September we'll be at the Didmarton and Cornish Bluegrass festivals, so we hope to see you there.
See our gigs page for details.
We were the cover stars of the Summer issue of
British Bluegrass News (the quarterly organ of the
newly relaunched British Bluegrass Music Association), which also featured a full-length article about our origins as a band, written by former band-member John Baldry. We undestand that the Autumn issue will feature an interview with the current members, conducted by Rick Townend.
We fully support the BBMA, which has been revitalised in the last year or so, and all the great things it is planning on doing in support of British bluegrass. Check it out (and join it!) at www.britishbluegrass.co.uk.
