BIOGRAPHY
Very short and sweet. We started singing Patty Griffin covers in October 2007 and people liked it, so we decided we should start writing our own songs in January of 2008.

We love, and are so thankful for, what we do!

Jessica Lea Mayfield: Look At Miss Ohio

“Things are starting to get weird.”

Jessica Lea Mayfield, whose Nonesuch Records debut Tell Me is in stores now, is on the phone from her home in Ohio and we’re having a good laugh over her recent success.
