New Moon (Northern Lights album)

New Moon is an album by the progressive bluegrass band Northern Lights. In 2003, three members of Northern Lights, Taylor Armerding, Dave Dick and Christ Miles, left the group, leaving Bill Henry to build a new band from the scratch. He recruited four new members, so that the band become quintet again: Ben Demerath on guitar, Mike Barnett on violin, Joe Walsh on mandolin and John Daniel on bass. This is also the first album in group's history, which doesn't feature 5-string banjo but two acoustic guitars instead.[1]
