Twelve inspired tunes from the 'new acoustic' Matt Flinner Trio. With the backdrop of the Rockies to inspire them, Matt Flinner, Ross Martin, and Eric Thorin threw down a challenge to one another to write a new tune each day while on tour and perform it that evening. The players each rose rapidly to meet the challenge, and the tunes composed over the course of three Western tours show the depth and inspiration of these performers. With MUSIC DU JOUR, the Matt Flinner Trio sets a new standard for the bluegrass trio configuration.
