True American originals, Tim and Dan are blood related to A.P.,Sarah and Maybelle Carter of the Carter Family musical dynasty butthey don’t make a big deal out of it. Like their momma, who taught them to rinse collard greens in the Maytag, they make their new oldtimey music with tried and true ingredients and modern appliances.There might be dumbek and wah~wah banjo but it still comes out “PrettyPolly”. Loosen your screws a few turns and enjoy the music of theCarter Brothers”! Think:acoustic/electric Led Zeppelin jamming withEarl Scruggs
