Exquisite vocalists and masterful musicians, Carol Elizabeth Jones and Laurel Bliss present music from their new album Girl From Jericho (Copper Creek), a sparkling mixture of gems from the likes of the Carter Family and legendary North Carolina native Ola Belle Reed, and lovely Carol Elizabeth originals. Virginia-based Carol Elizabeth's traditional mountain-style delivery and unique songs that blend contemporary themes with traditional Appalachian instrumental styles gained acclaim in her work with former partner James Leva, as did her "Heart of a Singer" project with Hazel Dickens and Ginny Hawker. Bellingham-based dobro whiz and singer, Laurel is perhaps best known for her Carter Family recordings with Cliff Perry in the 90s, notably the County Sales' Best Old-Time Recording of 1994, Old Pal. Now Carol Elizabeth and Laurel are making their first outing as a duo, with an emphasis on masterful instrumental interplay and lovely harmony singing.
