The delightful blues vocals of Screamin' Miss Jackson and Slap Ya Mama Big Band


Let Her Go features catchy instrumental hooks including the beautiful sounds of the Banjo and if that wasn't enough we are also entertained by the delightful vocals of the band's talented lineup.

Shady Grove is a slower paced melody with its Blues inspired arrangement, this ballad is just as entertaining.
