"The fascinating communication that passes between them when they play is breathtaking, beautiful, and elegantly graceful, a cascading river of seamless musical notes that hits all the pockets, even if the pockets seem unlikely sometimes. This set finds them together again on ten new co-writes, and it's exactly what one might expect from these two virtuoso musicians, a genre-defying blend of folk, classical, jazz, and whatever else the two feel like quoting in a few quick, deft notes ... A wonderfully joyous dialogue that one hopes will never truly end".

"Despite the wild gear-changes in style and mood, both blues and Bach run through all their veins. And if El Cinco Real leads you a dizzying barnyard dance, The Auld Beagle offers up a warm, punch-drunk dream. If the combination of mandolin and double bass might at first seem counter-intuitive, in the hands of Thile and Meyer it seems the most natural thing in the world".
