Scott Nygaard is one of the most inventive and original guitarists in the bluegrass/acoustic music scene.
His solos, a seamless amalgam of bluegrass, folk, and jazz influences, shift easily from breathtaking virtuosity to soulful melodic musings and his accompaniment is always intriguing, supportive, and propulsive. Initially influenced by Doc Watson, Clarence White, and Django Reinhardt and Riley Puckett, Scott spent many years wandering the sea of American music that includes bluegrass, jazz, Cajun, old-time, western swing and rock and roll, and has since expanded his musical world to include traditional Swedish and Irish music.
Nygaard's flatpicking is so fluid and clever the crowd keeps squinting at his hands, checking to make sure there are only two.Oakland Tribunea phenomenally talented stylistDownbeat
Scott was the guitarist with Tim O' Brien's band, the O'Boys, from 1992 to 1997, and has performed and/or recorded with such acoustic music stars as Joan Baez, Chris Thile, Darol Anger, Jerry Douglas, Laurie Lewis, Anonymous 4, Bill Evans, and many others, receiving numerous Grammy nominations for his stellar sidemanship. He was the guitarist on three recordings that have proven to be extremely influential on the contemporary acoustic music scene: Chris Thile's Leading Off, Tim O'Brien's Red on Blonde, and Jerry Douglas's Slide Rule.
As adept at creating magnetic rhythms as he is knocking off stunning solos, Nygaard is possibly the best acoustic guitarist to come along in bluegrass music since Tony Rice.Edmonton (Alberta) Journal

A Juno-nominated and Grammy-award winning artist, John Reischman is a master instrumentalist capable of swinging between re-inventions of traditional old-time tunes, deconstructions from the bluegrass repertoire, and compelling original tunes, many of which have become standards. He's an understated visionary - the kind of master craftsman whose music is virtuosic without ever being flashy and who is renowned for his impeccable taste and tone as an artist.  Known today for his work with his band the Jaybirds and his acclaimed solo albums, he got his start as an original member of the Tony Rice Unit in the late 1970s, helping to define thenew acoustic musicgenre.
