Long-time Freight favorites, Mitch Greenhill and Mayne Smith join two streams of American traditional music. Mitch began his career in Harvard Square's coffee houses, focusing on blues and other African American guitar styles. Mayne's home is in the Bay Area where he developed as a spine-tingling Anglo-American country-style singer and as a dobro and pedal steel guitarist. Over the years the duo has released two albums, Storm Coming (1979) and Back Where We've Never Been (1985). Tonight, Mitch and Mayne revisit tradition and introduce originals with their trademark tight vocal harmonies and hot licks, delivering a wide range of material from mountain tunes to acoustic swing instrumentals in a style described by San Francisco Chronicle writer, Phil Elwood, as "vernacular music, the real American popular music that comes out of the people, out of the performer, not off the printed score or dial spinning record producer."
