Banjos and vocals together in dark harmony“A female banjo bluegrass duo you just have to hear. Deborah Arnott and Claire-Louise Neilson are sublime as they sing ballads of love and loss.......not since the film Deliverance has a banjo grabbed your attention. Mixing Americana with the melancholy of Scottish folk this is a band I'd like to see on the BBC's Hogmanay show.......Blueflint deserve your attention.” "Blueflint play haunting bluegrass shot through with a yearning sadness and soothing harmonies. Influenced by old- time Americana they have added a full backing band that play with them from time to time giving their music even more depth." "...beautiful ballads of love and revenge with fantastic harmonies......what's not to love?" "Drawing mostly from their own material, Deborah Arnott and Clare-Louise Neilson played what could very loosely be described as bluegrass-derived songs, but they weren't afraid to play around with the genre, exceptional harmonising. Their version of the old Elvis classic That's All Right breathed new life into a tired old warhorse." “sweet-toned banjo.” |
