Album Notes

Living in Maryland, Judy has been on the road since the early 1990s, making her own the songs and ballads of traditional Americana and the British Isles. She has family roots in Virginia, lucky enough to be born into a family who loved music.

This led to her personal discovery of the rich and varied treasure of folk music and was the inspiration for recording, so far, two projects, the first, "If You Sing Songs…", being an album of unaccompanied traditional songs and ballads. This was followed by "Far From the Lowlands," both successes and both allowing her to express her folk spirit and talent.

She is respected on both sides of the Atlantic as both a singer and interpreter of traditional songs. Her vast & varied repertoire has resulted in an array of entertaining and informative themed programs enthusiastically received by universities, historical societies, festivals, and folks wherever she goes.
