Good stuff. I like the whole big bass and strings kind of music especially fused with say bluegrass.
The last band I was in was a three-piece group with acoustic guitar, violin, and double bass. We met at Chicago's Old Town School and played Americana, a mix of Blues, Folk, Rock' n' Roll, and old-timey music. The bluegrass folks used to call our stuff Jazzgrass.

We split when the frontman’s fiancé decided he was spending too much time with the band. Ironically, they met because of the band.

I loved that movie. That and Devil at the Crossroads, about Robert Johnson. Dylan was asked how he got so famous. He said he did a deal with the the man. What man asks the interviewer. Dylan replies the big chief, you know the one up there lol. Everyone thinks he meant the devil lol.

Yeah, The Blues Brothers was a fun movie. L'Osservatore Romano, the official Vatican newspaper, called The Blues Brothers a "Catholic classic" on the film's 30th anniversary in 2010. The article cited the themes of repentance, faith, sacrifice, and redemption. Some folks felt that the Church's enthusiasm for recognizing spiritual messages in pop culture was a good step. Others were not so enthusiastic about it.

Listen to these voices. Sometimes Ren the lead guy partners with another busker Sam Tompkins and they are amazing I think. It sounds like they are reincarnating all the old and new voices together, even womens voices lol. Just great street talent.

I enjoyed the group. That Andalusian chord progression in the first video (i-♭VII-♭VI-V) is also used in Resucito, one of my favorite Easter songs. I posted about it recently in this thread.
