People, Places, Memories
Released April 2003
From the Band:
Setting out to record an album is much like baking a cake.....you have high hopes
of course, but you won't know until the end how it will taste. This is doubly so
when all of the music is fresh and new, never before heard by human ears. For the
listener, too, it takes an act of faith to give a new song or a new band a chance.
So it is that we thank you for taking that chance, and giving a listen to this, our
second recording project. We hope you find something here that speaks to you.
Something that suits your palate. We truly thank our friends and fans in New
Mexico and elsewhere for their kind words and support over the years. And we
thank the folks at the various music festivals and venues that have taken a
chance on us, even when we don't fit the expected mold. Our thanks go also to Bill
Boaz for making us sound so much better. And to Doug Porter for graciously
agreeing to make a guest appearance on "Alamance"...one listen, and you will
understand why. And most of all, we thank our families for their faith, love,
tolerance, and encouragement in helping us to create something new. And for
helping us to remember each day all the reasons we have to be thankful.

With our heartfelt thanks, Diane, Fred, Duke, Mark, Dave, & Jeff
