Just listened to that cover...and you're right it is transporting! Thanks for sharing!

Hah, they had that backwards from when I was there in 79 with my parents - there's still a whiskey tumbler at their place commemorating the fact. Alas, won't be coming back there anytime soon!

Talking guitars: I love the way she uses her archtop for basic roots/bluegrass song backing. Archtops in roots music are a bit of a "secret". They are seen as "jazz boxes" only and overlooked for general acoustic playing.
Hi Robin, I saw Sarah in (I think 2016) in a freezing church.

Are you sure you aren't thinking of her Octave mandolin like this :

I had a late model Hofner Achtop converted like this :

Saw her at the Gothic in Denver a couple weeks ago. Great show, great band. Well worth it. The new album is a little poppy for me but it sounded good live.

I think she's great. I debated about seeing her in SF on Feb 27th, but didn't go.

Im envious! Here in Germany there is little hope that we see Sarah Jarosz anytime soon, I presume.

A special treat is also Le Ren, who opens many shows for her. For example, Dyan is an absolutely beautiful song.

Well, the show was last night and all were in fine form. Sarah has the most incredible voice and she can pick strings with the best of them. Not a false note, not a hiccup, nothing. She was just perfect. And the 3 guys accompanying her really floored me. Especially amazing was the guitar player (Steve?) Taylor. Pure wizardry. I hate him 😉.
Anyway, if she’s anywhere near you, treat yourself to an awesome show.

She was just on an episode of Austin City limits, probably a re-run, but I just saw it a couple of days ago. Billy Strings was the other performer, pretty nice way to spend an hour or so!

She's got some real fretboard chops, but I think her voice is amazing and her songwriting is really topnotch above all else. Such a talent.
