Skillfully combining the soulful lyrics of Shane Walker, the soft sweetness of Jamie Griffin's sopranic voice and the musical agility of Brian Beken's nimble fingered fiddling, RUNAWAY SCRAPE is a breakout masterpiece. This CD combines poetically written originals such as Steal Away (Walker) and Happy With Me (Griffin) with flawless renditions of Emmylou Harris, Townes Van Zandt, and Gram Parsons.
The inspiring lyrics are tinged with tender issues of the heart and soul that find sweet harmony among these three young musicians.
