Dan's strong sense of rhythm and impeccable timing gives great balance to The Fork In The Road CD. His double bass drumming stands out and adds a thematic quality to the songs. His all around talent and skill is very evident on the project. You will be forever spoiled once you hear the drumming excellence of Dan "The Human Metronome" Schrauth!
Banjo - I think it is the coolest instrument on the planet. It seems to me to be very complicated with 4-strings at the bottom of the neck, 5-strings at the top and your right hand doing all sorts of acrobatics. I love the beautiful sound that permeates off the drumhead. I like to listen to Alison Brown, Pete Wernick, Tony Trischka, Earl Scruggs, Pat Cloud, Todd Taylor, Bela Fleck to name a few. These people and many others have taken the banjo to new levels incorporating jazz, blues, bluegrass, rock, experimental, etc.

Sounds Like: "Fork In The Road" CD: The lead vocal and harmony vocal work is brilliant. The guitar leads and harmonies are on par with Joe Satriani and other guitar heroes. Overall, the "Fork In The Road" CD is a refreshing mix of Rock & Blues that will please the palate of most listeners.
