Any one of these women can silence a room with the power of her voice and her musical presence. They have sung together for the joy of it every time they have crossed paths on their well traveled roads. Now these extraordinary singers and multi-instrumentalists have joined forces to form the Road Dog Divas. The summer of '01 saw the divas howling through the southwest; the spring of '02 has welcomed in their new record, 'Everything's in Boxes.' The summer of '02 will see them tour the northeastern states and Canada. They will be featured at the Vancouver Folk Fest and the Northern Lights Festival in Ontario. Darlene has lived the true life of a troubadour. 12 years of continuous living on the road (8 of them on a motorcycle) has taught her how to bring life into traditional and original music. Whether singing her own character-driven songs, jazzy-blues, celtic/country, acappella, first nation chants or full blown gipsy tunes, Darlene is always crucial and spellbinding. She has 2 albums to date. "A cult Roots act in the making!" -Dublin Events Guide, Ireland www.moteldarlene.com Laura Freeman sings jazzy Texas sass. Combining torch, country, vaudeville and a wonderful sense of humor, Laura takes you on trips to France, holds you tight in a thunderstorm and lets you laugh while you cry. She has released two records: 'Greatest Hits from her 20's and 30's' and a new children's album: 'A Baker's Dozen' for everyone's inner 5 year old. "If Dorothy Parker had a lovechild by Jimmie Rodgers, the baby might have sounded a lot like Laura Freeman. She's half-cowgirl, half-disillusioned flapper, living in the perpetual ragtime hangover that followed the Jazz Age." -rockzilla.net www.lauraBfree.com Myshkin sings like a bird, plays like an inmate and writes like she's lived every story. Since landing in New Orleans in 1993, she has made six highly praised albums, garnered various awards and toured nonstop, playing festivals, clubs and concerts from Sydney to Seattle, Berlin to Boston. Myshkin's Ruby Warbler's new record, 'rosebud bullets' was released locally in May 2002 to critical uproar and is due for national release in September. "A marriage of punk's irreverence with the refinement and emotion of the jazz torch singers of old... an exhilarating musical ride." -New Orleans Times-Picayunne www.myshkinsrubywarblers.com Check out the artist's website: http://www.littleredhenmusic.com Track List: 1.
