The show was excellent! These guys are true pros with a rich history together. The harmonies resonate with ease and polish. The new songs are terrific and their standards never grow old! The audience was packed and everyone enjoyed the music to a standing ovation and resulting encore?
Worth it to watch 3 extremely competent performers who like one another play older music that still holds up
This guitar-only grouping was technically stunning, yet pleasant and soothing at the same time. Sitting in the 2nd row, we were able to closely watch the masterful picking, especially with the mandolins. And the new music is just as refreshing as the classics. Recommend this to anyone that enjoys music!
These harmonies they guys put together is why they are legendary
Way back tunes from Desert Rose and more plus songs from new album. Wish more of it highlighted John Jorgenson's incredible talent since he was the real reason I came.
Don't know how else to put it. If you have the chance to see them but you're wavering - just go. And once you are sitting in the audience, prepare for chills - the best kind of chills - to traverse your spine as you listen to them perform their timeless musical magic.
sorry guys, wanted to love the show - they are great by history - each in own right but show was just blaah. And The Birchmere is one of our fav places. I would not recommend.
First time that I was able to see Chris Hillman. Have been a fan for several years. They were super phabbo. Two guys on stage playing guitar and mandolin for the most part. They sounded like a full band. I enjoyed it immensely. Looking forward to seeing them again.
The Desert Rose Band's songwriting is superb, and they performed these beautiful songs so perfectly. Not only that, but we got to soak up several Byrds and Flying Burrito Brothers songs too! Chris Hillman has one of the best voices I've ever heard, and it sounded better than ever that night. His "Turn, Turn, Turn" brought me to tears. If you don't know it, these are four of the best musicians in the country bringing not only the country genre but folk rock and bluegrass to their concerts. I hope you get a chance to see them in concert--my overall feeling about this show is "sublime!"
They haven't lost a beat, incredible musicianship tied to tight, clean vocal harmonies w/ a genuine love of their fan base. Best unplugged show I've ever seen, one of the best concerts I've ever seen!
The group sounded great and they were happy to be there.
I must say that my expectations were more than met by the great concert last evening! Chris, Herb, John and Bill were terrific. It was like sitting in a living room listening to some good friends that just happen to be great musicians and singers. Before the show, I was wondering how they would translate some of the songs for electrified to acoustic. John Jorgenson's masterful playing of the guitar, 12-string and mandolin was as fun to watch as to listen to. I introduced two new friends to Desert Rose and its associated musical parts, and they are now fans, too. For me, I am now exploring John Jorgenson's other recordings and hope to see him live soon.
There were six of us and we loved the show. Each musician was superb and the selections they performed were terrific. We would love to see them again and again.
The band was great, and the musicians phenomenal. Many thanks for supporting our building of the new church.
last minute decision to go to this concert and I'm glad I did...it was excellent. What a great benefit performance. Hope they play in the area again! So nice to hear music that has a meaning and you can understand all the words!
Really great program. Intimate venue. Great accoustic sound system. Song into giving background to songs written was appreciated.
These guys are high quality musicians with mad acoustic skills.
Good, fun entertainment. Incredible harmonies. I was not familiar with Herb Pedersen but was equally impressed with him as with Chris Hillman.
This was amazing - Chris on Mandolin is unforgettable and Herb was flawless! Unplugged acoustic instruments - bluegrass and Byrds...does it get any better?
I went expecting just a concert with Chris and Herb, 2 great performers. What the show was much, much more. A lot of our local talent was showcased both before and after Chris & Herb performed. It was really a great tribute to Dan Fogleberg !
