That mandolin solo is just incredible

Holy moly this is so good! We have really lost something valuable with the cancellation of "Live From Here". I'm just glad we were able to attend twice at Wolf Trap in Vienna VA twice, 2018 and 2019. Before the pandemic shut it down,

What a great writer Anais is. And a lovely version of this song too.

[@KeelyBurnMusic]

Heard the recorded version of this song today. I thought I heard Chris Thile's voice in the background but figured I was just confusing it for this version. Then the mandolin solo came in, and that's how I figured out that I can recognize certain mandolin players by ear... haha.
Loooooved this show, and this song- definitely more appreciative of Anais Mitchell now!
