Cadence Magazine reviews late bloomer:

"It's clear that this crew is ready to stretch out in a million different directions and have tons of fun doing it....  Steele's fiddle darts in and out of the oddball rhythmic structures with great panache and rhythmic assurance.... Steele's fabulous tone and inventive solo sense didn't just happen overnight."   --July, 2008

do you have your copy yet....?
