Long Time To Be Gone

supported by 204 fans who also own “Lady of the Lake”

I have listened to bluegrass and old-timey style banjo music for many years. Nora Brown has the most poetic interpretation of these styles that I have heard so far. She is the John Fahey of banjo (but also with striking vocals). brit_b

Live From Bristol: Nora Brown with Sarah Kate Morgan

supported by 152 fans who also own “Lady of the Lake”

I love old-time appalachian music when it's played by musicians with a great sense of rhythm and attention to pitch and tones. The music was made before commercial interests shaped music and I can hear that the emotion is pure without regard to trying to sell anything. It's wonderful that a young person like Nora Brown with enormouds talent is dedicated to keeping it alive and breathing new life into it. bluejohn79
