Flexigrass: Avogadro’s Number (Fort Collins, CO)

Pete Wernick & FLEXIGRASS is a supercharged blend of bluegrass with classic jazz. The group blazes new trails every time they play, as vibes master Greg Harris and hot clarinetist Bill Pontarelli trade licks with renowned banjoist Wernick, and the band’s tight arrangements provide many surprises. Joan Wernick adds appealing vocals, ranging from soulful bluegrass to stylish jazz. Bass player Roger Johns and Kris Ditson maintain the pulsing rhythm section.
