I’ve found a soothing balm of sound in this collaboration—an urban pulse with heart. Hunter and Feingold move between sketches and longer conversations, honoring the past with sly nods while keeping the feel decidedly present. The shortest pieces—little bursts of perfection—leave me wanting more. Now I want to see them live and watch that interplay up close.

Ella Feingold was a kid in the late ’90s when she slipped into the Regatta Bar and watched Charlie Hunter and Leon Parker bend time. She left with her brain rewired, certain of one thing: that kind of feel was rare air. What she couldn’t have imagined then is the full‑circle moment that fuels Different Strokes for Different Folks—a raw, two‑guitar dialogue where Feingold and Hunter meet as peers, friends, and fearless explorers of groove.
