Album Notes

The songs are a mix of unusual original songs and 20's and 30's gems: Appalachian fiddle tunes, old-time country blues, songs of the Carter Family, old-time Gospel, and a few select newer classics.

Homemade mountain music steeped with vintage roots and leaf.

The band's two songwriters capture the essence of home in California, and the lost and found of love anywhere.

* Fiddles, banjo, dobro, mandolin, guitar (and one brave cello)
* Traditional American Music

Some of our fans have said:

"When I first played your live cd, I was enchanted with the angelic blending in the harmony of your voices."
- Devorah B.

"The Tea SIppers have a very interesting program, a combo of 1920's & 1930's songs along with a touch of Appalachian fiddle music. That, along with the 1920's dress and enthusiasm that they put into their performance makes for a very enjoyable show. I recommend it highly to anyone who likes this kind of music and also to anyone else, as you might learn to like it."
- John D.

Remember the tea kettle - it is always up to its neck in hot water, yet it still sings!
