Search - Humphrey and Hartman :: On Solid Ground

"On Solid Ground" is the debut release of acoustic singer-songwriters Janet Humphrey and Mary Hartman, and it shines with tight harmony, strong imagery, and well-placed humor. Arrangements feature guitars and vocal harmonies, and are simple and not overly "produced" to showcase Janet and Mary's beautiful voices and down-to-earth songwriting. Some tracks include banjo, violin, piano, bass, and percussion. The songs range from a slow ballad of the Civil War ("Ballad of Green River") to the up-tempo, folk-pop "Everything But Joy." There is ample humor here, including the semi-autobiographical "Big-Footed Woman."
