The Twilite Broadcasters

Thanks to Hallie, at the Pete Knapp Music Publicity agency, for news of the Twilite Broadcasters working out of Weaverville, North Carolina.

Adam Tanner and Mark Jackson both have long personal histories of involvement in old-time and traditional country music and early bluegrass: among other things, with the Crooked Jades band and the Appalshop organisation. They began working together as the Twilite Broadcasters in 2008, exploring the rich heritage of duet singing and playing on guitars, mandolin, and fiddle. Music from their new album The trail of time can be heard on their website. The band is also on Facebook, MySpace, Reverbnation, and SonicBids.

Several visiting bands working in the old-time genres have recently had warm welcomes in Ireland, and the Broadcasters should be able to give and receive equal satisfaction. Contact them via GraceBerry Entertainment (an agency that handles such solid bluegrass acts as David Davis & the Warrior River Boys) or their website.
