    Came across AJ and Brothers Comatose singing "Harvest Moon" on RUclips about 6 months ago. Can't stop watching, listening to her. Crazy-skilled mandolinist and pure-voiced singer. Reminds me of early Linda Ronstadt, whom I saw in concert in 1973. The only concert I ever saw where the boys were fainting instead of the girls. Yup.

      My wife and I got hooked the same way. Because of her I’m a fan of Molly Tuttle and Billy Strings too. Linda Rhonstadt is one of my favorites too along with the Beatles. AJ Lee and Blue Summit have quickly become one of my favorites too.

      Saw Linda around then at the Oakland Arena: John Sebastian, America, Linda Ronstadt, The Beach Boys. Linda was a tough act to follow!

    Remembering a weekend when baby AJ, my 3 month old and company at Campalot stayed to play music after the Strawberry 🍓 music ended... That night some amazing Japanese pickers, Prairie Flower, Cactus Bob,😊 Sara Elizabeth Campbell, and many others played on into the wee morning hours, perhaps aiding the Eastern Virtuosos' jet lag...
    Fast forward two decades and I'm telling my musical trombone tooting kid about AJ Lee. Collegiate kid says, "Mom! We grew up together at Strawberry? Playing in the birdseed and doing art projects with the Strawberry Kids down at the lake? You know where they have the revival?"
    Soundtrack: Japanese bluegrass players...

    AJ's simply delicious here -- seriously, that voice is like a rich, buttery caramel!
    And Sully's solo is insane! Are there like 128th notes in that or something? That ain't human, guy!
    Well done, everyone!

      At the Parkfield Bluegrass Festival I attended a banjo workshop with Geg Cahill and two California banjo players. During discussion of technique, Greg said "no matter what, you con only play one note at a time. Except maybe for Sully."

    I stumbled across AJ Lee yesterday while skimming through RUclips and was shocked that I had never heard of her. Especially since I lived for many years in Sonoma. I spent the rest of the day listening to everything I could find of her and Blue Summit. I am forever now a fan.

  • @user-pq1rs8im6l

    I love AJ Lee and Blue Summit. The harmonies are superb. I love the pause before “still” & “soul”. If I’m not mistaken this concert was on Fischman’s property. Those lucky dogs getting to experience this kind of talent in such a quaint and beautiful setting.

I see the videos of when you were very young, and already quite good, and it's amazing to see how you have really refined your vocals and mandolin playing over just a few years. You just keep getting better and better. Keep doing what you do. I hope to see you perform live someday!
