The Splints release new album “Sparta Sessions”
The Splints are a six-piece band from Grand Marais that defies genre, mixing everything from jazz, blues, and rock to polka, swing, and zydeco. The group has gone through many different iterations in its roughly 30 year history, led by lead singer and accordion player Leah Thomas. She joins host Will Moore in the studio along side fiddlers Max Bichal and Ben Obinger to talk about their new record Sparta Sessions recorded Sparta Studios with Rich Mattson. They talk about the recording process, how Ben joined the band, and their upcoming release show later this month.
