And you're only 14, Jordan? And up in the thumb of Michigan? Nice going, lads, that's quite a talented family band. And your whistling is very musical. What's your instrument?

To my ear, I could do with less drum in your mixes, or at least EQ out the treble "thwack" a bit. Otherwise, a nice blend overall.

Nice stuff! Very well engineered! I love the guitar sound on the first track. For my personal taste, there's a bit much reverb and such on the minstrel boy. Other than that, I think it's very nicely produced.
Why do people use aluminum to put beer in it, if you can make whistles out of it?

Yup! :) Why thankye! Thanks. :) Well, my instrument is the whistle, but we've got keyboard, guitar, violin, bohdran, and djembe as well. The bassist is a session bassist... although my little brother is highly considering learning it. :)

Thanks for the critique! Unfortuantely at this point there's nothing we can do about that... :P

Thanks! Yup, our sound engineer is great... really fun to work with too. :D Unfortunately there's nothing that can be done about that as the CDs have already been sent out and our sound guy lives in Indiana, but your critique is appreciated anyway.

In around 2 weeks or so we'll have them up on our website (which is in developement right now) and we'll sell them at our gigs. We MAY sell Mp3s somewhere as well, but we're not sure about that yet.

Yes, that was very nice. I hope you know how special it is to make music with your brothers. You can't please everyone all the time, so please yourselves first. Keep going.

Well, my instrument is the whistle...
Maybe he means what kind of whistle you're playing??
Anyhow, nice tunes! Sounds like y'all are having a good time.
I agree that there's a rich history of brothers making music in lots of musical traditions. Adds to the "group think" I think.
