"I just steal em from Jody Stecher" –Jerry Garcia (on his folk interpretations) Jody Stecher has made an intense and memorable new recording. The repertoire is outstanding, the feel is fabulous, the vocal support and instrumental detail by Mile Twelve is superb and very personal. The band is on fire, ignited by the spark of Jody’s impassioned singing and guitar. The format is recognizable as old-style blues-tinged, old-time flavored bluegrass but nothing here is generic or predictable. “Instant Lonesome and The Twinkle Brigade” is an uplifting, riveting album of music made by alert, able, committed musicians with something to say and the musical means to say it. 1.
