Winner of the prestigious Kerrville New Folk competition in 2009, Ernest Troost is an Emmy-winning (and multiple Emmy-nominated) composer of more than 100 scores for films and television.

Recorded live, as the title suggests, at McCabe’s Guitar Shop in Santa Monica, in January 2011, the new CD offers up a generous serving of 15 songs – some performed solo, but most with the help of some very talented friends! Of special note is bassist Mark “Pocket” Goldberg, who definitely lives up to his middle name; and Nicole Gordon, whose gorgeous voice provides lead vocals on two songs, and angelic harmonies on others.

In all, Troost's new third album, “LIVE AT McCABE’S” is a real treasure trove of his folk music in recent years. It features some of the most popular selections from his earlier two albums, as well as a lot of new material, not previously recorded.

Joining Ernest for this concert are his long-time collaborators, the wonderful Mark "Pocket" Goldberg on bass, Dave Fraser on harmonica and accordion and Debra Dobkin on drums.
