- This is the sound of fortunate confluence. A new school master of old time music Rayna Gellert partners with Americana godfather Kieran Kane. They gather in an upstate New York bunkhouse with fiddles banjos guitars Kieran’s famed octave mandolin five microphones and vague directives and they emerge with songs that edify and fascinate. The certainty of decades melds with discovery’s first blush in a whirl of tune tone touch and timing. All of this happens along the banks of the Great Sacandaga Lake in an area known as the Ledges where rocks meet deep water. And it’s all a marvel of rhythm melody and harmony at once unsuspected and ordained containing a level of assured simplicity that can only be attained by those capable of roaring complexity. Anyway this thing is at once gorgeous and funky easy and pulsating luminous and flannel. As we said fortunate confluence.
