11/23: tophenjammin — Soulful, Jazzy Bluegrass – Ice Cream for the Ears

Posted on November 18, 2012 by Carmen's Bistro

tophenjamin is Benjamin Lane on mandolin (and occasional melodica) and Christopher Lane on guitar. They both sing. The brotherly duo plays a wide variety of styles, but their sound is firmly rooted in bluegrass and gospel and heavily influenced by jazz and R&B. vocal harmonies frequently compliment their acoustic picking.
