Old-time fiddle tunes and acoustic blues from two long-time students of the music.

Dave Fox and Will Branch celebrate ten years of playing music together with this recording – it's a mix of old blues, New Orleans tunes and traditional fiddle tunes, recorded with very little in the way between the listener and the music. A lot of friends joined in the music-making, and the instrumentation includes guitar, fiddle, harmonica, banjo, washboard, upright bass, piano, mandolin, and kazoo. This is music to put on and have a good time to – whether you're dancing or singing along, doing the dishes, or letting the kids jump around. The tempos are up, the rhythms are driving, the words are funny, and a hot time is had by all.

"Did You Hear That?"is a musical version of the popular "Where's Waldo?" books - children can try to find 15 different musical sounds that are scattered throughout the CD. These sounds, the sounds of 15 musical instruments, are each named and demonstrated individually early on in the track order. The sounds are then used as the components of the remaining songs on the recording. The CD insert includes an illustration of the instruments being played, as well as a listing of which instruments are being played on each song.

"Fox and Branch are the best kind of musicians - making everything they play their own, while acknowledging the tradition from which the music comes. A folk duo from Milwaukee, Wisconsin, they perform a lighthearted mix of early jazz, country blues, jug band and dance music usually targeted to adults. Here the focus is on folk-derived children's songs that have been extensively tested at shows in public libraries and day care centers...the dedicated duo offer a spirited blueprint on how to put together an effective kids-oriented album."

Fox and Branch's first CD was released in the fall of 2001. Musicians include Lil' Rev, Eric Noden, Lisa Horngren and Joe Ruback. "SingOut!" magazine said, "...smokin' old-time country blues. For their debut CD they've collected some grand old songs from the likes of the Mississippi Sheiks, Robert Johnson, Mississippi John Hurt, and D. L. Menard. Add Fox's fiddle, and some guests on piano and bass, and you have one very sweet recording. This is great fun to listen to!"
