“The melodies are direct, memorable, and inseparable from the interlocking harmonies that are weaved around them. My Two Toms carries the traditions of the most memorable music; the complexity found deep within the drone of the Appalachian Mountains, the spiraling melodies of Northumberland pipe tunes, a simple song that stands well the test of time and is remembered not in a crazy-making way but as an old friend.” – Charlie Parr
“ It hurt right, like, you know, in the heart, where it's at, it spoke to me, straight, you know? and I was there, I was a My Two Toms fan. So, I bought their album after the show, wished they had it spinning 78RPM, it would have fitted their style. And then, well, I still have it, still listen to it, and I’m glad someone’s re-releasing it. I’ll buy it again, I’ll put it on for someone, a good friend and I’ll go: “Hey! You gotta listen to this, man, listen to this tune, man, it’s awesome!” or something like that!”

Hi My Two Toms. Thank you for accepting. Your songs are pure pleasure. They give me space to stand back, and reassess, usually when painting, but other times too. They get me off any hook I may be attached to. Thank you.
