LISTEN TO TROUBLESOME CREEK
from the debut album
"I must say that Troublesome Creek is one of the finest old time groups I have heard in a long time. I don't think they travel to California, at least not so far, but I have every intention of playing the CD on my radio show and letting people know who these guys are. Their instrumentals are clean and crisp and exciting and their vocals are simply amazing. There are lots of old time groups here in California and Oregon, but I can't think of anyone that gets that beautiful, bone-chilling mountain sound as well as Troublesome Creek. Great material, great singing, great picking. I hope they will make it out West sometime. Love to have them on my radio show if they're anywhere in the neighborhood!" --Gus Garelick, The Fiddling Zone,
"Eastern Kentucky-born [fiddler] Rick Martin...is a power-hitter possessed of both the requisite snappy bow and fingers well-tuned to the old music...Appropriately up in the mix, Arkin's adroit [banjo] playing achieves that most rare combo of beautiful, intricate melody and absolute pedal-to-the-floor drive...Harrington is a clear and most soulful lead and Lichtenwalner a resonant alto that would surely get a thumbs' up from Sara Carter herself. Their harmonies, simply spot-on, are all you'd ask for in this music. I give this compelling CD my highest recommendation." --Pete Sutherland, Old Time Herald,
