Sing Out! The Folk Song Magazine, Fall, 2003
"Hilarie is a talented clawhammer player... fine traditional and new tunes(arranged) in a very enjoyable and tasty way"
Product Description
Hilarie's first solo release is a "mostly banjo" CD which explores musical relationships with instruments as diverse as the Indian harmonium and the kanjira. "Put On the Skillet" is co-produced with Bernie Nau of Peach Fork Studios. It features Hilarie Burhans on clawhammer (frailing) banjo, joined at times by some combination of Bernie Nau, Al and Emily Cantrell, Matthew McElroy, Nick Weiland, Mark Burhans, and Mark Hellenberg. The track "Pretty Polly" was chosen for use in an episode of the critically acclaimed HBO series "Deadwood."

Product Description
According to Folk and Acoustic Music Exchange reviewer Tim Hoke: "Clawhammer banjoist Hilarie Burhans has found a perfect balance in Put on the Skillet, an independent release of mostly traditional old time tunes. Burhans is a master banjo player who has won the Ohio State Old-Time Banjo contest nine times. When not recording solo, she is a member of Hotpoint String Band, a contradance band in which she is joined by many of the other players on this album. Burhans' playing has the sweet plunky sound a clawhammer banjo should have. It fits perfectly alongside her rich and soulful vocals. Rounding out the sound on this album are the traditional fiddle, mandolin, bass and guitar, as well as the Indian harmonium and various objects of percussion. The result is a unique yet traditional sounding and feeling collection. Her rendition of Little Sadie sounds as though it might have been recorded sixty years ago, given the rhythmic playing of Mark Hellenberg on an aluminum doumbek, giving the backdrop that 'scratchy-record' feel." Strongly recommended!Customer Reviews:
