Editor's review
These hokey folkies say their tunes "range from simply sublime to sublimely ridiculous." So which category does an accordion-soaked, twanged-out turn on the Who's "Pinball Wizard" fall into? Like the best acts of their sort, LAT underpin their wry humor with a serious and affecting sense of craft.
Biography
The Loose Acoustic Trio is an American original. Since the turn of the 21st century, they have deftly blended Folk, Cajun, Old-Time Country, Blues, Jug Band, and Ragtime music to create an appealing sound they call �Good Time Music.� Sorrow Be Gone is no exception. The songs range from simply sublime to sublimely ridiculous, each wrapped up in an infectious rhythm that�s guaranteed to make you smile. Lyrics address such topics as the fury of Mother Nature, bad hair, flying fish, love, and pizza. The combination of accordion, 6-string banjo, bedpandolin (a mandolin forged from a metal bedpan), upright string bass and three part vocal harmonies, deliver traditional roots style with a contemporary twist.
