Dominican friars aren't known for their musical performances. Or, at the least, you might expect medieval chants over American bluegrass. But they're performing bluegrass all right . . at the Grand Ol' Opry in Nashville TN.
Their name, "Hillbilly Thomists," is a reference to Thomas Aquinas who lived around 1200 AD in Britain, an influential monk.
In the words of one fan, "Their folksy music is at once complex and lovely with lyrics rich in poetry and Scripture."
