Although this trio of buskers were still several years from being born when “About a Girl” was released on Nirvana’s 1989 debut album ‘Bleach,’ they don’t seem to have a problem getting into it.
We’re trying to upgrade our busk-recording equipment, so please consider a donation to our IndieGoGo campaign for a better video camera.
We share your inclination to get the whole story. For the past 25 years, Xpress has been committed to in-depth, balanced reporting about the greater Asheville area. We want everyone to have access to our stories. That’s a big part of why we’ve never charged for the paper or put up a paywall.
We’re pretty sure that you know journalism faces big challenges these days. Advertising no longer pays the whole cost. Media outlets around the country are asking their readers to chip in. Xpress needs help, too. We hope you’ll consider signing up to be a member of Xpress. For as little as $5 a month — the cost of a craft beer or kombucha — you can help keep local journalism strong. It only takes a moment.
The comments section is here to provide a platform for civil dialogue on the issues we face together as a local community. Xpress is committed to offering this platform for all voices, but when the tone of the discussion gets nasty or strays off topic, we believe many people choose not to participate. Xpress editors are determined to moderate comments to ensure a constructive interchange is maintained. All comments judged not to be in keeping with the spirit of civil discourse will be removed and repeat violators will be banned. See here for our terms of service. Thank you for being part of this effort to promote respectful discussion.

Lead singer kid is too fidgety. Nice performance on the acoustic guitars and backing vocals though.
I caught these kids when I was leaving LAAAF, and was really impressed by the entire act. The vocal harmonies are key, but the lead singer really brings it home for me.
So kid, if you’re reading this, ignore that first commenter and listen to someone who’s actually performed on streets and stages for the past decade: you’ve got moxie. Keep it up.
Saw these kids a week ago, they were quite good it! I found them doing this song with a better quality on youtube, as well as a johnny cash song check it out!
