NEWS: Check out the new family video podcast and blog at www.cathymarcy.com

“They are spellbinding acoustic musicians, with a rare mastery of American roots styles. Parents will be as entertained by the sublime musicianship and droll lyricism as kids are by all the musical mischief.” The Boston Globe

GRAMMY WINNERS, Cathy Fink & Marcy Marxer are a formidable powerhouse of sound, with a repertoire of traditional and contemporary folk, old-time country and swing music. Their superb harmonies are backed by instrumental virtuosity on the acoustic and electric guitar, five-string banjo, mandolin, pennywhistle, ukuleles and many other instruments. Cathy & Marcy's family concerts have set the standard for family participation and fun while their recordings have inspired kids, parents, grandparents, teachers and friends to sing together and enjoy the magic of music.

They have been nominated for a total of THIRTEEN Grammy Awards, and won two GRAMMY Awards for BON APPETIT! MUSICAL FOOD FUN and “cELLAbration: A Tribute to Ella Jenkins”, in the Best Musical Album for Children category. In 2003, they were nominated for three Grammy awards, including their eclectic CD, “POSTCARDS” in the Best Traditional Folk Album category. Also nominated in Trad. Folk for "Live in the UK: Tom Paxton with Cathy Fink & Marcy Marxer".

2008 GRAMMY FINALIST BANJO TALKIN’ and highly acclaimed THE OLD TIME BANJO FESTIVAL re-established the duo's connections to traditional old time music.

The duo tours year round sharing their love of five-string banjo, cello banjo, tenor banjo, banjo ukulele and melody banjo. An eclectic repertoire of traditional and original songs, along with period music and their superb harmonies makes for a wonderful concert. And don't miss their amazing family shows - there's a reason these gals have 2 GRAMMY Awards!

Cathy & Marcy have been keynote singers for the AFL-CIO, entertained the Queen of Thailand, performed at hundreds of folk festivals, appeared on the "Today Show" and on National Public Radio. They have been honored with 45 WAMMY Awards from the Washington Area Music Association. Cathy & Marcy have shared the stage with Tom Paxton, Pete Seeger, Patsy Montana, and a long list of notables in folk and country music. Cathy and Marcy won the John Lennon Songwriting Contest in 2006 for the title song of their latest CD, ”SCAT LIKE THAT”.

I’m out of contr‌ol

I’m hard to handl‌e.‌

at my worst‌
then you sure as hell

‘’the rainbow song’’ …………….bob shea

No one really knows
where the rainbow starts
And no one really knows
what's inside your heart

I want to see your colors
reds and blues
Every shade of every hue
All the gold inside of you

No one wants to know
all that lies within
Every little thought
where do I begin
I want to show you colors
blues and greens
Shades
that you have never seen
All the gold
that makes you dream

No one wants to know
all the colors of your heart
Every single shade
of the colors of your heart
No one wants to know
all the colors of your heart
Every single shade
of the colors of your heart

No one wants to know
where the rainbow ends
mystery of life

Dear Friends,

this is just a quick note to let you know that this is the last chance to get a physical copy of my first album "Pretty Boys and Ugly Girls".

I'm going to release my new album this fall (subscribe to my blog if you want to be informed!) and the first one will then be only available as a download version.

So if you prefer a proper CD - like I do! - a record you can really hold in your hands, with all the artwork and stuff - this is your chance! :-)

Grab your hard copy of "Pretty Boys and Ugly Girls" now on CD Baby while stocks last!


buy/download "Pretty Boys and Ugly Girls @ cdbaby.com!

Wishing you all the best,
