The Early Years

As we get older our memories of childhood inevitably fade, so it's really special to unearth the original footage of that very first moment when I realized that *my musical collaboration with TJ Brayshaw was destined to evolve into what it has become today. 

Please enjoy this special film.





*We're not fit to clean the boots of these fantastic players.Brothers Jonny Mizzone age 9 on banjo, Robbie Mizzone age 12 on fiddle, and Tommy Mizzone age 14 on guitar. Jonny is playing a Huber Vintage VRB-75 Banjo. The fact his name is Jonny is a coincidence.

    I once heard the banjo played. I vaguely recall it, though there's a fair amount of fog and smoke and love and, strangely, Brook Trout swirling around that memory. It coulda sounded that good. Coulda.

    I could drink that 9 year old punk under the table.

    Well, Jonny could anyway. I don't hold my liquor as well.

    In any case, until I hear him play drunk, I am not impressed.

    Yeah, but you don't have a Millennium Falcon or a stuffed fox.
