Kid is freakin' awesome on guitar. And that voice...

We saw them live at a local joint recently, they did this song. It's great to see good music being revived!

Those Thompsons look nice! Molly Tuttle is another great player who plays one.

As is Chris Luquette, who plays with Frank Solivan's Dirty Kitchen...

Resurrecting this thread - we saw Chris Luquette a couple of weeks ago at The Ram's Head in Annapolis playing with both the Good Deale Bluegrass and Eastman String bands.

Kinda felt the same way as I do after I see Tommy Emmanuel or Andy McKee: "Now I have to go home and burn all my guitars ..."

Great player and a fine singer as well - if you have the chance to see him, do.

Here he is in the offices of Fretboard Journal, playing Norman Blake's "Widow's Creek":
