The album is "Rivers Roll On By". If you've never heard of them, and for the last couple of years it seems like they've done all they good to make that the case, they're a quirky but authentic sounding bluegrass outfit hailing from the great state of Pennsylvania (hey Del McCoury came from here.) This album has some Americana florishes (a quiet drum here, an electric steel guitar there, a Neil Young-type arrangement over here) but overall a stellar effort and essentially a bluegrass album at its core. If you 're looking for something....Jennie plays a pretty good mandolin - also try the "One More In the Cabin" album. Nuff said.
