Blue Mule's third and best album, '23 Strings', continues the blend of traditional and contemporary styles they have become known for over the last few years. From the other-worldly opener 'Ezra and Ira' to the Beatles' 'Eleanor Rigby', with a twin-fiddle waltz and barn-burning bluegrass gospel in between, '23 Strings' brings Blue Mule another step closer in it's quest to meld wildly different influences into a unique ensemble sound.
