"We've been hearing tales recently about a Lansing, Michigan based folk-rockin', sweet jazz, bluegrass, old-time swingin' quartet with some serious buzz. We took one listen and were hooked, as you will be when you hear Steppin' In It at work. In the Words of Sally Van Meter, producer of their latest release -Hidden In The Lowlands- they are 'what would happen if Hank Williams joined forces with Wayne The Train Hancock and a folk band featuring Tom Waits'. Intrigued yet? Well, you will be...they accomplish the seemingly impossible task of making the most traditional sounds contemporary, blending hillbilly rackets with blues rhythms and European folk. It's like subtle musical alchemy. They may claim to just be steppin' in it, but we think they're knee deep in the future of bluegrass."

Should be known the world over
author: D. HEATON
Another album full of variations and styles, not as good as last winter in the copper country on first listening but gets better each time you play it.

Great CD--even better when seen LIVE!
author: Rose K
This band is so talented--each member brings his own special touch to the music. I saw them at the Trinity House Theatre in Livonia, MI and bought two of their CDs right then and there. Unfortunately, "Hidden in the Lowlands" wasn't available but the good part of that was I bought their "Last Winter in the Copper Country" which I absolutely love. Now, when I listed to "Lowlands" it takes me right back to their show at Trinity House--great songs and outstanding musicianship. If you ever get a chance to see these guys live, DO IT!

I definitely love this CD, full of talent and fun
author: Frances
This CD is something I believe worthy to keep and play from time to time. It can always seize me in just such a simple way, and cheer me up. Life maybe is just as simple as it, can be full of fun and charm.
Can I play it again?... ...
