For sure! I usually don't make it all the way through 6 minute long vids, even if they're pretty good, but I watched this one all the way through 'cause I just HAD to see what they would do next. That's a great band they've got going, and Flip is a real talent on harp. Do I detect him using Chris Michalek style vibrato??

That's just too cool for school!!!

Now that's how to build a solo!!

What an interesting lineup: Double Bass, Mandolin, Harp - works very well.

Hello all! I know Filip Jers very well. Some brief facts about him, he became double world champion in Trossingen Germany, 2005 at the age of 17.He takes his master degree at the Royal Academy Of Music in Stockholm, Sweden in May this year. He has a "unique" vibrato, which he "moves" 1/4 of a semitone over and under the actual tone he is playing, for example 3 draw bent 2 steps bent, then moves it 1/4 tone up and down from 3'' .... I think i remember he first heard Howard Levy doing it and then developed it to suit himself. He has some videos up on YouTube, here is a couple of favorites of mine
