Kauffman's use of vintage equipment and his signature low-fi recording approach gives Fridley's old-school country ballads ("Fare You Well," "Follow the Spark") and bluesy romps ("Baby I Can See," "Been Untrue") the feel of coming from a bygone era of reverb and twang-heavy AM radio. The final product channels Fridley's heros like Memphis Minnie, Emmylou Harris, Alison Krauss and the Carter Family, but the voice that emerges throughout the six tracks is authentically her own. Fridley credits her naturally retro sound to her years of immersion in the music of Southern Appalachia, paired with a deep love of history. "I think I love the imaginary world of the past, the fantasy world of what the past might have been," she says. "I think I like it because of the no electricity and it was very natural, living outdoors — the songs are all about that. I just think it's a really beautiful era."
Powerful vocals soar on an all-star group featuring honky-tonk guitar, bluesy pedal-steel and hot Appalachian fiddle. Showing a true love for Southern music, black and white, rural and urban, mountain and Mississippi delta, Cary Fridley evokes centuries of Southern voices from Memphis Minnie to Mother Maybelle.

I’ve been a music journalist for more than 10 years. Over the years, many artists and managers have asked me what the best way to break into the European music market is.
Here are some things you can do:
Publish artist press releases, news, and tour dates to the CountryHome Forum on MySpace, http://groups.myspace.com/CountryHomeMagazine , CountryHome Forum is part of CountryHome, http://www.CountryHome.de , Germany's Premier Country Music Online Magazine. Everything you publish to the CountryHome Forum will be published in my weekly Newsletter which has over 80,000 readers.
Send me CDs and DVDs for review and set up an artist interview with me. All reviews and interviews will be submitted to the magazines I'm writing for. More information for which magazines I'm writing can be found at http://www.MySpace.com/ChristianLamitschka
Upload artist videos to http://www.MyVideo.de and http://www.ClipFish.de . Both websites are like http://www.YouTube.com and uploading videos is free. The websites are completely in German. If you don’t speak German and need assistance, I will help you open an account and upload a video for 25 Euro. Each additional video upload for the same artist name and at the same video website is 10 Euro.
If you have more questions about the European music market or about any of the information I send to you today, please contact me at Ch.Lamitschka@t-online.de too.

After you've finished here, you may like to hear this poem sung on myspace...
Poem 162 of 230, WalkaboutsVerse (please see my blog): TEES TO TYNE: FIRST IMPRESSIONS - SUMMER 2001
Where traditions are not so rare; Sea, country and works scent the air; A multitude of monuments, Planted tubs and patterned pavements.
The longish pedestrian malls; The remnants of defensive walls; Historic buildings are a gauge Of the respect for heritage.
Wheat, rape and pines in the fields; Estuaries guarded by shields; Long sandy beaches and wide scenes; Romantic-ruin go-betweens.
Rivers in parts licked by trees, Or fringed by boat clubs, wharfs, gantries, And crossed by practical delights - Varied spans, forming pleasing sights.
Fine churches headed at Durham; Football kits ad infinitum; Kept castles - one for study; Masonry behind masonry.
And, with moulding-works out that way, It’s somewhere for a longer stay..?
