Doc and Merle Watson, Skip Battin, Claire Hamill, Sam Bush and the Robert Bobby Duo all sing about baseball. Sara Watkins & Sarah Jarosz & Aoifa O'Donovan harmonize on three songs. Sierra Hull and Brandi Carlisle (with Chris Thile and the Punch Brothers) both sing old foot tapping tunes. Veteran performers Tom Rush and Eric Andersen showcase their musical abilities; and Jonathan & Leigh, a duo from Ohio who made one pretty good folk-rock LP for Vanguard Records in 1967 are also featured.
