The band delivers their signature mix of originals, beloved classics and obscure jukebox numbers. Jill Rogers is a singer's singer with a 1974 voice and a story to tell, and Myles Boisen is a hero of juke joint licks on the six-string and lap steel guitar. Tony Marcus's fiddle weaves through the songs while Tim Rowe on drums and Smilin' Pete Garellick on bass hold down the rhythm with grace, style, and swing.
Jill Rogers delivers convincing, full-throated, but not faux-hillbilly, lead vocals...Add guest virtuoso Bobby Black on pedal steel and you have another great spin on the no-nonsense country of Bakersfield and pre-pop Nashville --in a tradition that includes Jimmie Rivers, Asleep at the Wheel, and others. Crying Time begs for a dance floor to accommodate your happy feet and a beer to catch your tears. - Derk Richardson (Oakland Magazine/ KPFA)
[Rogers] has that Iris DeMent quality to her voice that I love so much. - Ann Powers (NPR)
