DESCRIPTION:
The Antonucci Collective performs "Leap of Faith" at the Eagleview Bluegrass Festival (near Sutherlin, OR.) on 7 Sept 2013. This original (along with many others) is on their CD called 'Acoustic Vortex.'

Once upon a time, Mama and Papa Nooch dreamed of a Little Cabin Home on a hill and a passel of talented friends to share the front porch and pick and sing and nurture a new style of acoustic music. They raised up their boys with an abundance of music and family and now have formed the Antonucci Collective with Uncle Rich Antonucci, Uncle Greg Clark, Uncle Warren Whistler and their young 'un Coleman.

The members hail from Southern Oregon, Grants Pass, Merlin, Hugo and Sunny Valley, and they play many of Coleman and Gary's original songs and also traditional bluegrass favorites. All members share in the vocals with the lead singing generally by Gary and Coleman, and rounded out with the beautiful family harmonies. The instruments include the standup bass, mandolin, banjo, guitar, fiddle & ukulele. The addition of the ukulele adds a new, fresh sound.
