I was totally blown away. David is a true bow master... I urge you to discover his music. —No Depression
----
The centerpiece of this recording is Bragger’s powerful fiddling with effective doses of funk and blues…—Bluegrass Unlimited
----
It seems like many folks have known for years what an amazing player David is (we both remember the first time we heard his fiddling, and our jaws dropped). But what we have here folks is a monster musician - diverse, knowledgeable, and with his own unique voice. For us, this - his debut album - is required listening for any old time music fans." —Pharis and Jason Romero
