Like “Cindy,” “Free Little Bird” is found throughout Appalachia, though Harmon’s lyrics are unusual. He sings, “I’m as free to my eggs as a bird in a cage, I’m as free little bird as I can be.” While cheery on the surface, Harmon’s loping banjo style and conflicted lyrics add an undertone of melancholy. On this recording, we set our instruments out of their standard tuning to retain the tension of the source material: Libby plays in a GCGD tuning on the fiddle while Kelly practices her dual capo acrobatics to utilize the guitar’s low and high range.

Great choice of music, expertly played and sung. Nicely produced. I hope to see The Onlies live, asap. This is an album I listen to over and over. Karamogo
