   About The Allens
I watch everyday as Jeremy's beard grows larger and more powerful. Our music is good and in august we will start a cd that will prove this to you, the doubting thomas you are. I think i will start posting the lyrics in our blog. i think i will start posting the blog in our lyrics. Other than that you should know that yes, we ARE a husband and wife folk duo and our mothers love us.






The Allens, a country/folk-based duo from Midland, Texas, turn in a gentle collection of 10 original tracks on their self-titled debut CD. Lyricist/vocalist Catherine Allen's heartfelt story-songs complement husband Jeremy Don Allen's compositions. Their work lives in same universe as Cowboy Junkies and Allison Kraus. Jeremy's acoustic guitar work is rounded out by a full band, including a sprinklng of tasteful pedal steel. Everything about this collection is structured to showcase the exceptional vocals of Catherine Allen. Her plaintive voice, ethereal yet real, with a hint of Texas, comfortably connects... her phrasing, especially on "Like I Should," is particularly evocative. While that track could be a probable top 10 hit on commercial country radio with a bit of tweaking, it's a wonderful listen just as it is. There is a pleasant pureness to this material. Nice stuff. © Fred Kraus minor7th.com
