Laurie Lewis - Style and Sound

Style and Sound

"She is newgrass in the truest sense of the word, in that she uses bluegrass instruments to create new original music: it's music for now. As a fiddler, she could be from the 1940s or from 2010; it's timeless. As a singer, she knows the rules of bluegrass and how to sing in her own voice. She's probably one of the few female singers who really knows the nuances of the Ralph Stanley vocal style." —Sam Bush, founder New Grass Revival

Famous quotes containing the words style and/or sound:

    Hemingway was a prisoner of his style. No one can talk like the characters in Hemingway except the characters in Hemingway. His style in the wildest sense finally killed him.

    Comrades, leave me here a little, while as yet ‘tis early morn:
    Leave me here, and when you want me, sound upon the bugle-horn.
