This collaboration between Chris Thile, leader of Nonesuch quintet the Punch Brothers and former Nickel Creek vocalist-mandolin player, and double bassist Edgar Meyer is a meeting of two prodigious, Grammy Award-winning talents in, quite literally, the most down home of settings. Co-writing a dozen compositions, the pair recorded their work at Meyer's house in Nashville. No frills, no words and no other musicians were needed, keeping the focus on thed quick-thinking repartee between these two players. Their wide-ranging musical dialogue incorporates bluegrass, folk, country, and classical elements.
