Back in December of 2022 we brought together two talented flatpickers, Jake Eddy and Jordan Tice, to pick a few songs on their brand new Yamaha acoustic guitars at a shoot in Los Angeles, California. Both Eddy and Tice performed a couple of tunes solo, then they joined together on a Norman Blake-penned song that Tony Rice popularized called “Orphan Annie.” Though both of these musicians came into bluegrass and guitar-picking from seemingly disparate points of entry, their styles blend seamlessly as they swap licks inspired and influenced by Blake and Rice.
