Fine harmonies, blues and jazz edges and rock elements all combine into a cohesive joyful sound. Their new CD, Sittin’ on a Goldmine, is another tight, focused work with impeccable musicianship and excellent songs. While some folks soar on the Dead, Phish or String Cheese Incident, I soar on Free Peoples. They’re as good as it gets.”
