In the midst of their 2017 “Release the Hounds” tour, the trio of Aoife O’Donovan, Chris Eldridge and Julian Lage stopped by our Seattle headquarters. There was plenty of incredible guitar virtuosity during their visit, but this tune – a cover of Joanna Newsome’s “Good Intentions Paving Company” where Aoife’s vocals shined – stole the show for us.

Eldridge is playing his 1954 Martin D-28; Lage is playing his Collings OM1A-T and O’Donovan is playing her Collings 0.

The tail end of the “Release the Hounds” tour is taking place in April 2017 throughout California. Here are the remaining dates.
