   Possibly.   
      
   Side note. The guitar player on his album(Eldridge) is in a group called   
   the infamous stringdusters. We caught them at the fox family festival   
   this summer. Great group of young musicians. They should be coming out   
   with something here in the next few months. Worth looking for.   
      
   I have a CD by their dobro player (Andy Hall). Good stuff. They have a   
   full "bluegrass" set (guitar, mandolin, banjo, fiddle, dobro and Bass)   
   which I found pretty cool since I love them all.   
      
   cheers

   >>>Album Review - Chris Thile - How to Grow a Woman from the Ground   
   >>>   
   >>>Over the course of the past few years, Sean Watkins and Chris Thile   
   >>>have been alternating solo releases that have made it readily   
   >>>apparent as to what each brings to their primary outfit Nickel Creek.   
   >>>Watkins' efforts, such as Blinders On and 26 Miles, have been gently   
   >>>melodic, folk-pop extravaganzas; while Thile's projects, such as   
   >>>Deceiver and Live Duets, have been decidedly more eclectic and   
   >>>adventurous. On his fifth solo outing How to Grow a Woman from the   
   >>>Ground, Thile again proves that he's willing to try anything once.
