They met at a D.C. folk festival sponsored by the Smithsonian back in 1977, and performed a simple but sweet brand of laid back folk blues, the Piedmont Blues. John Cephas played a unique six string style featuring alternating thumb and finger, with the thumb creating a steady, loping bass line underneath as the melody is simultaneously picked out on the treble strings.
