Album Notes

"Is there any singing better than sibling harmony? I have listened to the Wiburns,the Osbornes,the Louvins, the Everlys and all. Now Tumbleweed steps up to the mike to completely captivate me with the magical ingredient. Gosh, I do like it."
GEORGE LUNN, CRM,Road Manager for Chet Atkins

"First-class musicianship and vocal perfection without frills or pretence. Tumbleweed make intoxicatingly sweet,honest bluegrass music that will simultaneously break your heart with musical beauty and patch it up with silent strength. Never before has a hurtin' song made you feel so glad to be alive."
KATHERIN MONK, Vancouver Sun Music Critic

"When I saw Tumbleweed perform live,one of maybe twenty performers,they easily the best.The charisma and visual impact of the two sisters draws an audience like a magnet.With their own particular brand of bluegrass they possess the sweetest sound either side of the Rockies."
ANYA WILSON,Top record promoter for over 30 years

One banjo,one fat acuostic bass and three voices in close,Appalachia laced harmony:that's the essential TUMBLEWEED. On stage as on their new CD, the eye and ear are drawn first to the two sisters,Cathy-Anne on vocals and Trisha on bass and vocals.Third vocalist,Chris Stevens, is the banjo/guitar player picking and rolling his infectious rhythms over everthing from a gospel classic to an aching,original tune to something Kentucky and traditional to a sweetly re-arranged Beatles' chestnut. Some amazing talented friends join in when they can and are always part of the extended family but the essence always remains:one banjo,one fat acoustic bass and three voices in close,Appalachia laced harmony.That's Tumbleweed.
