"Passionate folk-rock with a spooky, dirty edge...like Pentangle meets Leonard Cohen meets Crazy Horse..." Here's our first live review!!! "Angeline wakes me up. It feels like 60s protest music delivered by a front wall of three strong, focused, and beautiful women (singers/ guitarists Emily Grogan and Linda Viens, and Cheryl Etu on vibes). Behind them tonight is a double whack of Boston music history Asa Brebner on bass and fill-in drummer Larry Dersch. The urgent vocals of the Neil Young-esque Weathervane insists, "it's just a time for a change" and though not necessarily political in its nature, this song could help lead us out of Iraq. The band is missing their pedal steel player tonight so all the solos are handled on the vibes, and I like the soft mix of the instrument contrasting with the classic vocal duet harmonies. This band is capturing something very special and I predict a successful future for them. Their soon-to-be-released CD is destined for a lot of airplay - watch it cross over from rock to folk to country stations." - T.Max, Noise Magazine, 8.06. And here is our most recent review; from a sneak preview of our record, "Powdered Pearls", which will be released in March 2007 (yay!): (http://www.bmosworld.net/AngelinePowderedPearls.html) "Sounding alternately like the soulful twin daughters of Sandy Denny or the northern cousins of Lucinda Williams, Emily Grogan and Linda Viens are Angeline. They are also two very talented singer songwriters with distinct voices and a stellar backing band featuring the legendary Asa Brebner. Grogan's solo record "iO" was one of my favorites from 2005. She has also performed with a number of local bands and performers, including Andrea Gillis. Viens is the lead singer of The Bad Saints. With a lyrical depth not often seen in modern day pop music, and an impressive emotional range, Angeline's "Powdered Pearls" is one of the finest collections of songs I've heard in a very, very long time. The arrangements are mostly simple, always in service to the words and the mood; and the musicianship is stellar without being intrusive. There is nothing I would change about this record, except to put it into the hands of every radio programming director in America. If this were 1975, Linda Viens and Emily Grogan would be mentioned in the same breath with Joni Mitchell and Carol King. They are that good." - Brian Mosher, BMO's World, 12.06 (xoxo!)
Angeline is the edgy, passionate, politically charged “folk-rock” project of longtime Boston rockers Emily Grogan and Linda Viens and songwriter Cheryl Etu. All distinguished singer/songwriters with active solo careers, Emily and Linda began merging their voices and guitars in 2005 during their daughters’ play dates and experienced vibraphonist Cheryl Etu joined them in 2006. The delight of singing, working together and sharing “frontperson” responsibilities evolved into "Angeline" and the recording of their first record, “Powdered Pearls”, released on the legendary Americana/Morphine label, HI-N-DRY on March 23, 2007. The girls are currently writing new material and their latest single, "This is the Wave", recorded at Soundhouse Studios in Attleboro, MA(http://www.myspace.com/soundhousecreativegroup), is loaded up here at our page for your listening pleasure...:-)
oh, and find us on Facebook too (myspace, we will always love you best!),
Recently described by the Noise as feeling like “’60s protest music delivered by a front wall of strong, focused, and beautiful women backed by a double whack of Boston music history on bass and drums, Angeline also includes vibes and violin to complete its uniquely beautiful sound”.
Angeline is a growing, evolving, deeply felt, organic collaboration between passionate people who write and play music every single second they are not being poets, painters, writers, friends, lovers, activists, moms, and worker bees.
