Larry's newest release, Larry Keel, Curtis Burch and the Experience represents the monumental collaboration between legends from 2 generations of Bluegrass music. This recording is a sonic adventure suffused with the rare combination of joyous, wild energy and subtle, sophisticated expression that has become the signature style of a Larry Keel production. Keel and Burch (The New Grass Revival) are supported by a super acoustic ensemble including Billy Constable (Doug Dillard Band, Hypnotic Clambake), Woody Wood (Blue Rags), Jason Krekel (Snake Oil Medicine Show), Mark Schimick and Jenny Keel. Recorded with superior engineering skill by Mike Brantley (former bass player for The Del McCoury Band), this project features 4 original compositions from Keel himself, a "New Grass" original penned cooperatively by Curtis Burch, Sam Bush and Mark Olson, and an exhilarating array of pieces that come from the composers close to the talented artists who appear on this project: arrangements of tunes by John Hartford, Tut Taylor, A.L. Wood, the Country Gentlemen, the Dillards, the Everly Brothers and Django Reinhardt. This project is heavily inspired by the timeless music and essence of John Hartford and dedicated to his memory.
