REVIEWS
Here's what some people have written about or to us:

"Innovative, brilliant, alluring pieces; unique sound, great vocals & mix"
(
5 stars)

"These people have a unique style, expansive and relateable, on the edge of percussive and vocal innovation. 'Full Moon Walking' is an extraordinary blend of vocals and instrumental melodies - see how this track soars.  

"Through out the CD there is an exceptional sound, with surprising great vocal melodies. I enjoyed it immensely."

- Jim O’Brien,
formerly of KCFR, Denver public radio

"The Warblehead Union" album, quality studio recordings of 16 tracks, 67 minutes of deepening mood, is now on sale for $12 +ship/handle on CDBaby.

The CD was mostly recorded by Dave Cummings at Bluetone Studio in Somerville, Mass. Two tunes were recorded in performance at Acorn Studios (pix below,) during the Marblehead Arts Festival in July '03.

There's one track there that's not on the CD:
"Late Night, Quiet Pond," a peaceful duet with vocal and Nepalese singing bowl, featuring Ben Sheppard on wood flute, bells, etc.

We've been pretty well-rated on their
New Age/Ethnic Fusion Audience Picks chart -- #3 out of 53 in that subcategory, last time we looked, October '07. (Note that that page only shows the top 7.)

- Thanks very much to the people who gave us ratings, and such kind ones (it's currently 4.5 out of 5!)
