Songs from the Mountain is an album of passionate restraint, befitting the Appalachian heritage it celebrates and the novel that inspired the collection. The story--which may itself pass into folk legend--is that fiddler Dirk Powell and multi-instrumentalist and vocalist extraordinaire Tim O`Brien were so taken with Charles Frazier`s Cold Mountain that they decided to do a companion CD with banjoist John Herrmann.
