Laurie Lewis and The Right Hands

“A string band of versatile players can do just about anything"

"It’s possible to be a strong female presence in the Bluegrass music world, but you have to be really strong. Laurie is one of the greatest bluegrass artists, woman or man, because of her consistency over decades, the depth and width of her subject matter, her commitment to the Bluegrass form, and her technical command. Oh yes, and her strength. Laurie’s strength manifests in many ways: her commanding presence on stage combined with an emotional vulnerability, the truths in her lyrics, her physical voice which transcends gender, her strong commitment to causes and issues in which she deeply believes, which all resonate with a respect for the land, the natural world, and human mercy and justice." —Darol Anger
