"Rhiannon is a show-stopper -- not only for her glorious voice but also for
her incredible versatility. She ranges across many styles and genres, and
is equally at ease singing opera, blues, gospel and Gaelic or whatever the
moment takes. A rare talent!" -- Margaret Bennett, folklorist and singer
"This beautiful young woman has been gifted with a gorgeous natural voice, which has been honed and trained through years of of opera singing. Classical training can sometimes be a detriment to folk singing - but emphatically NOT in this case. Rhiannon has the voice, she knows how to use it, and she is grounded and steeped in the folk tradition. Every note rings true." -- Mary Smith, Co-director, Richmond Folk Music

"Ticklin' The Strings" by Sweet Hollywaiians
Amazing Japanese hot string band playing 1920's, 30's, 40's style hawaiian, swing, calypso, blues, italian music and originals,featuring vintage instruments.3 songs with Robert Armstrong and Tony Marcus(from Robert Crumb and His Cheap Suit Serenaders)
"The Sweet Hollywaiians have probably the best feel for this 20's music of any string band working today. They manage the rare feat of sounding relaxed even when their playing is hot, are top notch musicians with tasteful arrangements and a full, rich, warm sound.Plus, they have a nice gamut of tunes, from King Nawahi to Giovanni Vicari to Bobby Leecan. See them live, if you can, for an unforgettable experience. If you can't, buy their Cds!" ~ Terry Zwigoff
