"The Furnace Mountain Band is pure Virginia Appalachian goodness. Some of the greatest picking and harmonies you've ever heard." ( Nathan Moore, Frogville Records ). "And speaking of harmonies, the two female vocalists from The Furnace Mountain Band are sublime on Fly the River (Shepherd's Ford), while their fiddler has a gorgeous tone" Charles De lint (musician and author of 65 published books). Combine the incomparable singing of Morgan Morrison and Aimee Curl, with high-energy fiddle/dance music, and you have a music that can sweep you off your feet in every direction. The Furnace Mountain Band plays a mixture of Appalachian Fiddle Tunes, Ballads, Celtic Tunes and Songs, World Music, Bluegrass, and Originals. .. ....plain layout.... @ ......HOT..FreeLayouts.com...... ..love.. / ..music.. / ..movies.. .......... ..HotFreeLayouts.. ..UK/Ireland Booking: Brookfield-Knights Agency www.brookfield-knights.com UK/Ireland Promo & Publicity: Bloodygreatpr www.bloodygreatpr.com

    Hi,
        Great to hear you on "Bob Harris" you were absolutely brilliant!!!

    only reason I tuned in to be honest:) enjoyed the tracks you picked to be played as well, hadn't really heard Fleet Foxes and the Louis Armstrong one was pretty awesome as well.

    "OH Belle" also awesome:)  but I'm not buying a bicycle:)

    "All The Best"
