Would you listen to this?

If not, what (specifically) is the turn off?

I'm not suspecting I'll get much of a bite, just doing some marketing research of sorts.

Its just not very energetic. Nothing wrong with banjo though. In the same general genre, I love these guys and this version of Tell it To Me: http://vimeo.com/9570767

weird that the banjo player appears to be strumming his 5 string with a pick.

And why's everyone under 30 playing acoustic music gotta wear one of those fucking hats?

Except, that by the time I bet they were hitting 30, and the band broke up, the hats were gone... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jqwPRaI_p1g

which seems to be the other, less essential, part of the modern roots music uniform.

it's great, btw.

Like the drummer, I love guys who use simple percussion to add a lot to a song.

Those guys want a tub bassist, throw my name into the hat!

Digging into more youthful acts, but it's a hard tightrope to walk... Older folkies make Lessonheads seem like loving and acceptable people. Gotta find that balance.

but looking at recent covers, it seems much more broad in the music it's presenting than I picture - of course, my picture is mostly based on reading from the 1950s and 60s when it was primarily driven by a certain political interpretation of folk.
