Jenna, Benjamin and K.K. Johnson of Track 45 often tells audiences, "If you listen to us long enough, you'll eventually hear something you like!" They play and sing their own arrangements of Americana music with lots of tight three-part harmonies. These children have a tremendous amount of stage presence/audience appeal. They easily move from a capella spirituals to easygoing traditionals & folk to bluegrass--and they love it all. They started with singing telegrams and weddings (vocal and string/flute ensemble)in MS, but the entertainment directors at Dollywood asked them to sing for a week at their Bluegrass Festival, and they were hooked! They arrange all their own music, giving even old standards their "own" sound, and they've already written and performed some original song
Described, "eclectic music for the mind's eye", The Filetofsoul Project performs their own unique brand of genre-defying original music. From Neo-Classical sounds featuring the 5th Caprice by Nicolo Paganini, to Smooth Jazz and Acoustic pieces, to Power Trio Rock.
