a great mix of grits and grunt
author: Harry MorganA great mix ranging from the funky to the sublime. Shows off the great talent that is present in Asheville,NC. Two thumbs up. WAY UP!
I love this CD. Asheville is a virtual hotbed of talent. I can't wait to hear P+
author: Fools Goldmine MagazineFrom the robotic love of song craftsman A.P. to the mountain soul of Malcom Holcombe, this CD is packed with great tunes. Peaks and Curves is finally showcasing the talent hiding out in the Blue Ridge Mountains. Stephanie's Id delivers a stunning performance as do funksters GFE. Asheville, NC is making a big noise for a little mountain town.
The album rocks--teriffic eclectic music mix
author: Abacab PressPeaks and Curves features musicians from Asheville North Carolina and that area is obviously brimming with talent because the CD is full of great music. Everything from funky fusion to hip hop to authentic mountain music to electronica. Highly recommended. Some of these artists will be stars of tomorrow, not much doubt about that. Extraordinary audio quality as well.
