Well-known in Toronto's 'old time' folk music community, Hannah and Arnie come together in concert. Each having released individual solo CDs in 2016, they perform cuts from these backing one-another on banjo, fiddle and guitar.
Hannah crafts original songs that ring with influences of Ola Belle Reed, The Carter Family, American oldtime, and traditional English ballads. Her new record Know the Mountain ranges from sweet waltzes about fishes and birds to dark murder ballads and haunting instrumental reels.
Arnie Naiman is one of the leading exponents of old-time banjo and an important figure on the Canadian old-time and bluegrass scene, influencing many players with his dexterous approach with two-finger picking and clawhammer style. "My Lucky Stars" is his latest album. It consists primarily of Arnie's original tunes, written over the past ten years and features an all-star group of Canadian musicians.
