Sollee brings a latte-sipping, This American Life-flavored sheen to traditional folk. He played alongside Béla Fleck with Abigail Washburn & The Sparrow Quartet, and he retains that bluegrass feel on his solo release, mixed with a soulful blues and jazz dipped in sophistication by the cello. Sollee's voice is his knockout punch: A nimble, textured instrument, its balletic rhythms amplify the music's refinement. —Chris Parker
