    Default Tim & Myles Thompson-these guys deserve their own thread

    Myles posted a link in Kevin Briggs Redline A thread, i thought immediately these guys need a private spot here-enjoy some really good music and refreshing mandolin(violin/fiddle is top shelf as well)




    while i had the video in copy, i stuck a thread on the AGF also:

    Really great stuff. Amazing talents. One caveat: Guys, please stay out of Alabama and Georgia. Our band doesn't want competition that's that good.

    Myles actually posted this video in the Red Line A5 thread a few days ago. He's a member of the Cafe.

    I saw these guys at Winfield last year. They put on a very entertaining show and Myles is a monster. He also participated in the fiddle workshop. One of those young guys that makes you want to burn your instruments and take up knitting or something like that.

    Maybe Daryl has finally run out of builders to start 'what do you think?' threads about?

    Tim and Myles are good friends who live fairly close by. Great guys and incredible musicians. When not on the road they are often busy doing session work in town. If you get a chance to see them in concert, do yourself a favor and go. If you want a real treat, book them for a show or house concert or whatever. They are worth getting to know.
    Have a Great Day!

    Here's another video. Myles just sent me the link to it. He also mentioned the tune is actually called "Rondo Alla Turc".

    I'm doing this from my phone, so if it doesn't work, you can also find it on their FB page or mine.
