EMORY LESTER – REMINISCING TODAY

Reminiscing Today - 2009 - QFP-030
Emory Lester’s passion for colorful music shines brightly in this, his finest work to date. Complete with his most creative compositions, Emory’s strong, clear and lyrically inspired mandolin style sails through each track, which features songs of full acoustic instrumentation as well as solo mandolin, with a vocal performance by Emory of Graem Miles ‘Shepherd on the Hill’.
With noted past projects such as ‘Pale Rider’ and ‘Cruisin the 8’, this brand new release is sure to make it’s mark in the world of bluegrass, new acoustic, and mandolin featured collections, and continues Emory’s trail-blazing journey through the annals of mandolin artistry.
Emory introduces the debut of his two sons, Justin and Josh, on bass and guitar respectively, who joined their father on several original instrumentals on this project.
