Editor's review
Though it's unclear whether they've even been to the centers of their primary influences -- Appalachian and Cajun -- the UK's Rosinators show how music can transcend national boundaries. With tight vocal harmonies, chirpy banjo and swooping old timey fidd
Biography
"When American roots music deejays rave about bluegrass passion, Cajun verve and country-gospel authenticity, you know that The Rosinators are the real deal. From deep in the heart of Balham Alligator territory, the London- based trio have added their own stamp to the American old time tradition so convincingly that most of their radio airplay comes from US stations. Formed in 2001, they blazed out of the traps with dynamic three-part vocal harmonies and fiery twin-fiddle attacks driven by crackin' guitar picking." [Acoustic Music Centre - Edinburgh Festival Fringe]
"Paul, Fliss and Will are three excellent musicians who absolutely love to play - enthusiastic, joyful and really good people. When the Rosinators play everyone in the room has a smile on their face. Go to see them. Get the album. You won't regret it." [Gail Comfort, host of 'The Comfort Zone', CMR Nashville]
"Rapidly gaining a reputation as one of the UK's finest bands...if you've not heard their music then you really are missing something great!!" [Dee Hallett, British Bluegrass News]
"On this their debut album, The Rosinators give it to you straight: excellent musicianship and harmonies to die for....It's honest and passionate. On the first listening I was under it's spell; on the second I was hooked! This is real acoustic roots at its best. Don't let this one pass you by!" [Gerry Mansfield, Maverick Magazine]
