“Traditional Duets” recalls a time when the evening was spent swapping songs and stories on the front porch. By collecting some of the best Traditional songs in stunning acoustic arrangements, Dave Holodiloff and Gene Mason have created an album that will take you on a journey to the old country. Intricate string work on the mandolin and guitar and evocative vocal harmonies showcase the timeless emotional appeal of these classic songs. Featuring a heartfelt country original “I’ll Take the Memories” by talented songwriter Gene Mason as well as Bluegrass, Folk, Appalachian, Gospel, Scottish, and Irish favorites.
