"Vocalist and frontwoman Becky Schlegel is blessed with a pure, chiming, miracle of a voice....When the [song] finds her longing for her home in 'the hills of West Virginia,' it doesn't really matter if she lives in Farmington, Minnesota-the heartfelt phrasing and strong, emotive singing illustrate clearly that home, regardless of geography, is a place where one is loved."
--Twin Cities Revue
THIS LONESOME SONG is the first CD by bluegrass superstar Becky Schlegel. The CD established Becky and her band True Blue as one of the Midwest's most accomplished and acclaimed bluegrass groups.
Becky was raised in the central South Dakota town of Kimball (pop 700). She has been making music as long as she can remember, from piano lessons starting in kindergarten to joining her mother's professional country band, The Country Benders, to forming True Blue in 1997. Living in the Twin Cities has definitely influenced her music: her music could easily be described as bluegrass for the adult contemporary set, with Becky's angelic Alison Krauss-like voice rising above her band's skillful picking.

WoW what a great voice
author: Peterco Entertainment Promotions
We are Radio F.M.Country 97.4 FM 24hr Network Broadcasting in Australia, I have to say this Becky, you have the ideal voice for bluegrass, you remind us of our own Kasey Chambers here in Australia, as your voice style is very close. This album is great so you will be hearing from us soon as we don't have any of your albums for our playlist.
