This duo’s David Benedict (mandolin) and Tabitha Agnew Benedict (banjo) offer up a tender reminder to soak in the fleeting moments of simple goodness as they come. Tabitha’s honeyed vocals (along with harmonies from the song’s co-writer Danielle Yother) are surrounded by swaths of fiddle, mandolin and acoustic guitar. Together, they make for a serene balm of respite during turbulent times.
