Harry Manx and Kevin Breit - In Good We Trust
- Harry Manx and Kevin Breit mix country and bluegrass to create a mellow, somewhat melancholy noise on their album "In Good We Trust." Manx and Breit use a variety of string instruments to give their album a distinct sound.

The track “Better Man Blues” sounds almost like something from the Eastern part of the world. It feels exotic, which is not what would I expect from a song with "blues" in the title. It’s also an instrumental, which set it apart. The other tracks feature raspy, almost haunting vocals.

"Death Have Mercy" is similar. Manx and Breit merge American bluegrass with foreign instruments to create a song that isn’t easily classified.

The whole album follows this pattern. There is somewhat of a melding between two cultures, and the end result is intriguing and entrancing. "In Good We Trust" is an original album that is creatively crafted and attention-grabbing.
