Sounds Like
"Nina and Mike caught my ear. She wrote her own songs and had a voice
that reminded me of Maria Muldar from the Jim Kweskin Jug Band; sort of
a hillbilly jazz sound. Very Intriguing." - Rick Dougherty of the Kingston
Trio - 8/06
"Nina Romanenko leads this excellent group of musicians, with plenty of help from her husband,
Mike Harrison and neighbor, Kent Aldrich. The sounds are pure, the talent extreme and the fun
contagious. Don’t miss them when they come back." - Dan Gabree, Peace Cafe, Middletown, CT -

So sorry we missed you today! The cars were really amazing and Ray loved hearing them start their engines. I guess we got there too late and you had finished...next time!
Just saying hi and we miss you! Hopefully we can all get together soon, and please, could you teach Ray to play that guitar? He's driving me nuts and I don't know what I'm doing! Maybe you could teach me too! :-)
Hey you Cats and Cool Dogs! It was great to finally hear you do an extended set at Peaberry's last Saturday. From swing-swing-swingin' to mellow and all points between! Man, the night went quick! We couldn't believe when it was closing time! More! More!
Ray and I just listened to the cool dog shrug and I hid the page so he couldn't see it and he immediately knew it was Auntie Nina!! He did all the motions and even sang along in parts!
Ah your page is wearing the green! Happy Saint Paddys Day to Nina and all the Quarry Cats, Eagles and Cool Dogs. Thanks for doing Danny Boy at Roaring Brook. How lovely.
Hey Cats! Great performance last night at the Spice of Life Show! "Cool Dog Shrug" is stuck in my head this morning and I'm LOVIN' IT!!! You guys SWING! We'll be SO looking forward to seeing you in the next Spice of Life Show December 9th! Keep in touch! Larry
