This husband-wife duo combines Steve Gillette's country-folk songwriting with Cindy Mangsen's traditional Appalachian roots. Steve's originals, including "Darcy Farrow," "Happy Hour," and "Back on the Street Again" have been recorded by the likes of Tammy Wynette, Ian & Sylvia, Gordon Lightfoot, and Garth Brooks. A superb guitarist, Steve's performances inspire glowing reviews and fiercely loyal fans. Cindy, on dulcimer, guitar, banjo, and concertina, sings with a smooth, silky voice utterly lacking in affectation and colored by a natural vibrato. In concert and albums -- most recently A Sense of Place -- the two cover a variety of styles, blending world-class professionalism with down-home, informal charm. |
