The Once - The Once

The Once is a hot new trio from Newfoundland that is creating a buzz on the North American folk/roots scene. They are exceptional singers and musicians armed with bouzouki, mandolin, banjo and guitar who deliver ballads, shanties and original songs stemming from the rich traditions of their Island home.Perfect vocal harmonies thick enough to stand on � think of the heavenly mix of Alison Krauss, Emmylou Harris and Gillian Welch, back them up with The Chieftans, and let Daniel Lanois swim around in it, and you're still only halfway there.
