    A Djam Karet Goes Acoustic

    Guitarist Gayle Ellett is a founding member of the long-lived American Prog band, Djam Karet. But on a separate project, he goes all acoustic, teaming up with Todd Montgomery who specializes in sitar, but who also plays all kinds of eastern stringed instruments. As Fernwood they create a Americana global music fusion. Arcadia is their third album of mostly acoustic ruminations orchestrated with everything from sitars to guitars to dilrubas. It's the Echoes CD of the Month for February. You can read a review and hear trax here. http://wp.me/p4ZE0X-4uI Sunday Echoes radio listeners can hear it tonight. Online subscribers can hear it anytime.

    Yeah, auto-buy for me... The first two still get quite a few spins at my home.

    I have the first 2 Ferwood records and this is an auto-buy for me as well. I find it makes for excellent dinner music or for those times I just want to kick back and chill.

    Todd Montgomery was briefly a PE member back around the first record was released.

    Sean, if you haven't heard the first two they are very similar in style. I have all three that I like to shuffle together as some excellent background/dinner/chill music.

    Just ordered their newest Arcadia from Bandcamp. Any meal that combines cheese, bacon and chicken should be sufficient...

    I only have the Almeria disc but it is fine, fine music. Looking forward to Arcadia.

    I have all 3. They're pretty much interchangeable. I like to put all 3 on shuffle as dinner music.
