The Soil and The Seed
“The Soil and the Seed is a spellbinding, deeply passionate, gorgeously textured record. Powerful, vulnerable, refreshing, and honest, it’s an example of what happens when finely honed musical skill and intuition meet raw, undeniable soul. With three prominent vocalists, sporadic use of percussion, an upright bassist, a dedicated mandolin player, and a separate concertina/dobro player (similar to an accordion and a steel guitar, respectively), it’s safe to say that Buffalo Rose defies simple categorization. Elements of folk, soul, and bluegrass blend into something amorphously Americana, but decidedly their own.”
