about

With "Nothing is Certain but Death", Woody Sullender has not so much brought the walls of the banjo down, but expanded their width and their breadth.
- Clifford Allen (All About Jazz)

Sullender refracts [old time music] precedents through a cracked lens of semi-idiomatic improvisations, hatching upon fractured patterns that Holcomb and peers such as Clarence Ashley and Dock Boggs wouldn’t have thought of on their worst corn liquor bender...The result is a highly personal, even intimate, program of music that deposits the aged instrument in fertile new territory.
- Derek Taylor (Cadence Magazine)
