Something special happens when talented musicians who are also good friends grab some guitars and set about making music. Armed with flat top, resonator and Weissenborn guitars, various slides and a rich batch of original tunes, Michael Hill and Colin John have stepped away from their electric proclivities to create a most exciting, imaginative brew of acoustic sounds and stories. Guitars sparkle and sing with the phrasing and dynamics of Colin’s open tuned fingerstylings and Michael’s chromatically-blue note choices. Hill’s acclaimed songwriting and John’s own considerable skills as a tunesmith merge in heartfelt tales told with the warmly affectionate musical and vocal interaction that are a hallmark of their live performances.
“Fresh Folk Blues” reaches out to transform the listener into a colleague in the sharing of songs between friends, and that’s one of the very best things that folk, blues or any music can do.

"Ticklin' The Strings" by Sweet Hollywaiians
Amazing Japanese hot string band playing 1920's, 30's, 40's style hawaiian, swing, calypso, blues, italian music and originals,featuring vintage instruments.3 songs with Robert Armstrong and Tony Marcus(from Robert Crumb and His Cheap Suit Serenaders)
"The Sweet Hollywaiians have probably the best feel for this 20's music of any string band working today. They manage the rare feat of sounding relaxed even when their playing is hot, are top notch musicians with tasteful arrangements and a full, rich, warm sound.Plus, they have a nice gamut of tunes, from King Nawahi to Giovanni Vicari to Bobby Leecan. See them live, if you can, for an unforgettable experience. If you can't, buy their Cds!" ~ Terry Zwigoff
