Syntax Creative Clients Take 45 Nominations for the 35th Annual IBMA Awards
DESCRIPTION:
GRAMMY winner Bryan Sutton teams up with fellow IBMA Guitar Player of the Year Kenny Smith for a graceful take on the rarely recorded “Three Star Hornpipe.” Rather than choosing a familiar song, Sutton brought in a tune he discovered at a jam session, and Smith eagerly learned it. The result is one of the album’s more mellow moments, highlighting Smith’s tone-first approach as the two exchange fluid phrases with natural ease.
