Team Flathead was carefully produced, recorded, mixed and mastered with a single goal in mind - to replicate as accurately as the possible the natural acoustic tone of the Huber Banjos. Each banjo track was recorded with the same vintage Neumann microphone, and the mic placement and distance was identical for each player. No equalization was utilized during either the recording or mixing process, and compression was avoided during mastering.

The tunes were chosen to highlight the banjos as well, with familiar music and uncomplicated arrangements used throughout.

A number of professional banjo players who focus on tone were brought into the studio to make this recording: Jim Mills, Sammy Shelor, Ron Stewart, Steve Huber and John Lawless. A top-notch rhythm section was also assembled, with Kenny Smith on guitar, Alan Bibey on mandolin, Andy Todd on bass, and Ron Stewart doubling on fiddle.

Team Flathead can be purchased as an audio CD or MP3 download in our Huber Banjos store. It's worth adding to your collection to hear these fine banjos - or just to enjoy some hard driving, Scruggs-style banjo picking!
