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.” [Rick Fulton The Daily Record] "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." [The List] "...beautiful ballads of love and revenge with fantastic harmonies......what's not to love?" [Scotland on Sunday Review] "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." [Martin Lenon, the Edinburgh Evening News] “sweet-toned banjo.” [North Devon Journal] |
