Hand Me Down finds Dirk Powell returning to the deepest waters of Appalachian fiddle and banjo traditions, reaffirming the timeless strength and beauty of one of America's most powerful musical forms. 'The music here is no scholarly, note-by-note re-creation of antique pieces; it jumps out of the speakers at you with the fire of discovery, instrumental mastery, soul, humor and passion. It is only the latest step in a journey of discovery by one of the most gifted musicians at work today, regardless of genre.' --Tom Piazza, from his liner notes .
