THE ORANGE MIGHTY TRIO:
Take one part Bluegrass fiddling and combine with Classical technique and compositional chops, add a range of improvisation, especially Jazz flavor, and you might get a recipe for the Orange Mighty Trio’s fresh new music. The Minneapolis-based instrumentalists define themselves with the tongue-in-cheek term “bluegrassical,” and use humor, spontaneity and onstage interaction to capture a growing audience for their adventurous violin, piano and bass pairing.
PRESS FOR THE ORANGE MIGHTY TRIO:
"Cobbles together jazz, classical, and American roots into a kind of maverick chamber music" -- Minneapolis City Pages
"...absolutely not to be missed by fans of Tin Hat Trio or Darol Anger's Republic of Strings." -- Cedar Cultural Center
"Combines mountainy roots music with urban jazz and hints of classical, careening between beautiful, bold and a bit of bombast." -- Minneapolis Star Tribune
"Sometimes playful, sometimes dark, sometimes airy--always fascinating." -- Pulse of the Twin Cities
"OMT meanders happily through jazz and chamber-music styles that would make the group equally at home playing the Dakota, guesting with the Minnesota Orchestra or playing at a county fair." -- The Onion
"An intriguing fusion of contemporary chamber music with American roots music" -- St. Paul Pioneer Press
"This is a highly spirited group of musicians on their way to a bright future" -- Twin Cities Daily Planet

Thanks, Trio, for the add and comment. Yep, no shaves or haircuts for either of us; but 'ta da da diddley dum tum...' anyway. I put in a few jazzy rhythms during a jig last night at a barn dance because I had been listening to Yourspace. It got the swing dancers strutting out their stuff for that number. All your fault.
