Crooked Still Lineup Change

Cellist Rushad Eggleston will perform his last show with the band on November 18th and for the first time in 6-years the band will add new members. Cellist Tristan Clarridge and fiddler Brittany Haas come to the lineup after having played with Darol Anger's Republic of Strings. The band also plans to begin work on a new album in January of 2008 with an expected release date sometime in the spring of 2008.

The bands two previous releases, Shaken by a Low Sound (Signature Sounds, 2006) and Hop High (Footprint 2005) are very sound progressive bluegrass releases and have had heavy rotation on mine and other radio shows. Seeing where the band goes next with their music and how the changes in their lineup will influence their sound will be interesting.
