| "The group's inventive
arrangements range from spare to lavishly ornamented, as background voices dip,
soar and swirl in gorgeous harmonies that accent and fulfill each lead singer's
storyline."
— Jack Bernhardt, News & Observer |
|
| "The women--Julie
Woodmansee, Alison Jones, Julie Mooney, Liz Wing, Marya McNeish, Betsy Levitas,
and Stacey Anderegg--have done two house concerts at the farm, the most recent one
in October (to standing ovations and encores). They excel at anything they take
on: old rock 'n' roll, gospel, foreign-language songs, novelty numbers, anthemic
tunes of peace and freedom, et al., all performed with cool arrangements and strong
harmonies. They have been the anchor group for the Murphey School Radio Show, a
benefit musical/comedy/theater event in the manner of old-time radio shows. All
that and they're terrific women."
— Peter Kramer, Peter's blog |

| "It takes my ear
a little adjustment to the recorded music when the primary instrument is the human
voice. It’s simply because we’re bombarded with so many other types
of sounds and overproduced musical works in our day-to-day life, the purity of what
they do sort of asks me to take a deep breath.
"
— Roger Cook (interviewed by Lisa Rossi), Chapel Hill Magazine |
