About Live At The Newburyport Firehouse [2
Dry Branch Fire Squad remains one of the most remarkable bluegrass bands to have emerged in the past three decades. In all that time, with numerous Rounder releases to their credit, their 1996 live album, Live at Last has been the consistent bestseller. Here, at long last, is the release long-time and new Dry Branch fans have been waiting for: two full live sets of leader Ron Thomasons incendiary satire and humor, plus many Dry Branch favorites including "Orphan Train,""Coming to Us Dead," and "Hot Corn, Cold Corn." Nowhere does their inimitable style come alive more fully than in a concert setting. Spanning two discs, this live performance perfectly captures all the elements of Dry Branch that have endeared them to the bluegrass community for so long. From gospel shakers to straight-ahead bluegrass stomps to rural metaphysics, Live at the Newburyport Firehouse is the definitive Dry Branch Fire Squad experience. "Simply put, this is the best live band playing today each time I was moved not only to laughter, but tears and joy as well. Every time." Chris Stuart, Southern California Bluegrass News "Its old-time vocals shouted out with honesty and conviction rough edges proudly showing, breathtakingly quick instrumentals that bring to mind free-spirited wild horses, Ron Thomasons biting satire and wry political commentary, hauntingly moving a cappella gospel songs, pure unadulterated old-time religion set to mountain music. This is the Dry Branch Fire Squad." Nancy Cardwell, Bluegrass Now
