Read what Bluegrass Unlimited had to say about our debut CD,
"Driving Through a Ghost Town" (11/09)...
"'Driving Through a Ghost Town' is a first-class collection of traditional bluegrass
with a robust measure of creativity. Hopefully this is the first of many recording projects from Anna Mae Mitchell & Rising Tide."
The reviews are back from Prime Cuts of Bluegrass (vol. 99, track 8),
and here's what the DJs are saying about our single, "Lichen Covered Stone" written by band members Steven Peterson and Nancy Merrill... "Powerful project!" Al Shusterman, KCBL, Sacramento CA "Refreshing change." Larry Brooks, Florida Public Radio, Inc. "I was over blessed by this voice." Dallas Hoskins, WMKZ "Excellent track."
