Some acoustic bands bend the rules of old time American music; this Kentucky band smashes the rules to pieces, combining everything from xylophone to electric guitar to saxophone to synthesizers to computer loops. For its Live at KDHX session, the band stayed more on the acoustic side of its sound, demonstrating a command over gypsy jazz and traditional fiddle music, and even sneaking in a telling Jimi Hendrix quote on the epic pastiche "Little Piece of Paper."
