Editorial Reviews

Mellow traditional folk/bluegrass with a Baroque and jazz twist. Featured on National Public Radio (NPR) All Songs Considered. "A mind-bending journey of improbable range and vision, Stolen Shack imagines the sound of a brave new world..." Leo Sacks, Sony Kent Gustavson, with his trio Stolen Shack, brings the sound of roots music into the sphere of classical and jazz music in this, his first album. Virtuosic bowed upright bass solos (that's NOT a cello you're hearing!) and lush harpsichord create a haunting landscape for the viscous and honeyed singing. You have never heard this sound before, guaranteed. "A mind-bending journey of improbable range and vision, Stolen Shack imagines the sound of a brave new world where alternative country and classical music mingles with modern jazz; warm and witty and pointedly political, their notions about art and commerce are ground-breaking and stylishly subversive; their ideas flow as fast and freely as their fingers. Bless them, Heavenly Father, for they are brilliant, and thoroughly insane." Leo Sacks: Producer, Sony Music/Legacy Recordings "The CD has songs from the Civil War and from Cyndi Lauper, from Ireland and Asbury Park, and somehow it all works." Robin Hilton, Host, All Songs Considered, NPR. Washington, D.C. "Stolen Shack is fabulous. I listened straight through twice, which I never do, and look forward to listening many more times. It will be a favorite in my CD player for a long time to come. It sounds fresh and old at the same time." Neal Hagberg, Singer/Songwriter, www.nealandleandra.com. Mpls, MN.
