Loretta, Dolly, and Emmy Lou taking on the difficulties of finding love and real estate in new York City . . .
Ménage à Twang is a Brooklyn-based, all-girl, comic country trio that blends lovely three part harmonies with razor sharp wit, acoustic guitars with an anti-depressant pill bottle shaker, and camp irony with a genuine love for folk music. In the spirit of trios gone before—notably the Dolly, Emmy Lou, and Linda collaboration, the Dixie Chicks, and, of course, Destiny’s Child— the Ménage’s debut album, available at www.cdbaby.com/menageatwang, delivers songs that address the unique challenges that fabulous ladies face when navigating big city life.
Whether they are lamenting a soul-sucking day job, cursing their tiny shared studio apartment, celebrating a successful one night stand, or calling friends out on their secret conservative side, Ménage’s songs will move you. Or make you want to move out of the metropolitan area.
Ménage à Twang is made up of Emily Moore, a published poet and high school teacher, Jessica Del Vecchio, a feminist scholar and former music biz dayjobber, and Rachel Levy, a television producer, photographer and bad-ass baker.

This specially compiled 4 CD Box Set from Time Life features the best Folk Rock songs from the ’60s, ’70s, ’80s and ’90s! Includes 71 Songs That Defined An Era and Influenced Generations... In Stores September 11
Not just another genre, folk rock was born as a statement—of purpose, of taste, of superiority—the baby boom’s first imprimatur, a musical mission and a personal battle cry in a divisive time of racial tension and escalating war. For a generation of philosopher dropouts and drug-inspired visionaries, it was also the best way to partake in the era’s hippest form of artistic expression, in numbers previously unknown to man.
