Nickle Creek

Got the "best of" for xmas. All tracks are excellent and the tune, "I should've known better" should be on everyones play list.

Included is a video CD with seven different videos. Way cool.

and note from their web site:
Dearest Listener,
After seven years of extensive touring in support of three records (seventeen years as a band), we've decided to take a break of indefinite length at the end of 2007 to preserve the environment we've sought so hard to create and to pursue other interests. It has been a pleasure to write, record, and perform for you through the years and we'd like to heartily thank you for your invaluable contribution to our musical lives.

Yours,

Nickel Creek
(Sean, Sara, and Chris)
Billboard's interview with Nickel Creek has more details.

 

I had read this before, very sad. I loved their music and they put on an excellent show.

 

pop bluegrass

 

very good pop bluegrass

 

I like them.... Good stuff

 

Yeah the girl has such a sweet voice and I have one of Chris Thiele's solo cd's. He seems to be to the mandolin what Bela Fleck is to the banjo or Path Metheny is to the guitar.

 

Just got turned on to these folks over the weekend.
