| When the first Huber banjos CD, Team Flathead, was released in 2003, the focus was on the banjos with each of the then current Huber models being used for at least one track. On Volume 2, Cuppa 'Jo, the focus is on a group of seven pro players who use a Huber Banjo to practice their craft. |
The roster of banjo players includes a number of celebrated veterans, and three pickers who were 21 or younger when the CD was recorded. Featured pickers this time out:
|
Jason Burleson |
|
from Blue Highway |
|
Greg Cahill |
|
from Special Consensus |
|
Cia Cherryholmes |
|
from Cherryholmes |
|
Joey Cox |
|
from BlueRidge |
|
Jason Davis |
|
from Michelle Nixon & Drive |
|
Steve Dilling |
|
from IIIrd Tyme Out |
|
Jim Mills |
|
from Ricky Skaggs & Kentucky Thunder |
The supporting cast is also made up of A-list pickers: Alan Bibey on mandolin, Alan Bartram on bass, Kenny Smith on guitar and Ron Stewart on fiddle. |
Each picker used their personal banjo, and was encouraged to select tunes that they felt could best showcase their own taste and style. Cuppa 'Jo was produced by AcuTab's John Lawless, and recorded and mastered by the same folks who worked on Team Flathead.
Check out the sample audio for a taste of Cuppa 'Jo. |
