“I’ve admired the concerts Craig Hella Johnson and Conspirare have given over the eighteen years I’ve been in Austin, and I’ve heard them sing a very wide array of things from Bach to Rachmaninoff to Dolly Parton to music with the ink still wet. What I – and all of their fans – admire about them is the deep, emotional connection they make with whatever they are singing and passing that on to our ears and hearts.” — Peter Bay
