    While his technical acumen remains uncontested, the addition of blistering bluegrass singer/guitarist Michael Daves and notorious engineering luddite White into the mix has helped to temper Thile's signature refinements into something raw and primal.

    Daves is a guitarist, Thile a genius of the mandolin. Both sing. Together they hammer and tongs the songs like smiths.

    The two make a fine vocal duo, but even more astonishing is their instrumental virtuosity.

    Dusty museum pieces they're not: The uptempo jams are wild-picking shred fests, and the ballads cut deep.
