   About The Carrivick Sisters
Twin sisters Charlotte and Laura Carrivick have grown up playing and writing music together. Their unique style shows their strong bluegrass influences without obscuring their English roots. With tight harmonies that only siblings can achieve, they perform their original songs on guitar, fiddle, mandolin, dobro and clawhammer banjo. They have performed both in the UK and internationally. ______________________________________________________________ They recorded their first CD 'My Own Two Feet' two years at home. Their second CD, "Better Than 6 Cakes" was recorded at Modern World Studios in September 2007. To find out how you can purchase 'Better Than 6 cakes' contact the Carrivick Sister by email or through MySpace. You can buy 'My Own Two Feet' from Lulu.com (http://www.lulu.com/content/830963) . We have plans for an new CD to be out early next year... ______________________________________________________________ For bookings, please contact Grapvine Music Agency (www.grapevinemusicagency.co.uk) To contact the Carrivick Sisters directly please email: carrivicksisters@hotmail.co.uk ______________________________________________________________ "I am very impressed by The Carrivick Sisters, one of the best young duos I've heard. The girls sing and play as one and their work is characterised by great musicality. They are not only very talented instrumentalists and singers but they write really good songs as well." - Ralph McTell ______________________________________________________________

Poem 162 of 230, WalkaboutsVerse
(please see my blog): 
TEES TO TYNE: FIRST IMPRESSIONS - SUMMER 2001 

Where traditions are not so rare; 
    Sea, country and works scent the air; 
A multitude of monuments, 
    Planted tubs and patterned pavements. 

The longish pedestrian malls; 
    The remnants of defensive walls; 
Historic buildings are a gauge 
    Of the respect for heritage. 

Wheat, rape and pines in the fields; 
    Estuaries guarded by shields; 
Long sandy beaches and wide scenes; 
    Romantic-ruin go-betweens. 

Rivers in parts licked by trees, 
    Or fringed by boat clubs, wharfs, gantries, 
And crossed by practical delights - 
    Varied spans, forming pleasing sights. 

Fine churches headed at Durham; 
    Football kits ad infinitum; 
Kept castles - one for study; 
    Masonry behind masonry. 

And, with moulding-works out that way, 
It’s somewhere for a longer stay..?

Hi!  Can't believe it's been over a month since RockyGrass!  It was great to pick with you again there.  I'm not sure if you already saw it on our page, but here's a picture we took while Laura was playing in the Mandolin contest.  Sorry that it's so far away, but we were using that questionable camera!  Hope to see you guys again soon! ~ Amelia

Hello ladies,
I just watched your latest youtube post. very well done. I can't say this about very many musicians but there isn't a single song I've heard from you two that I didn't love. Keep up the good work. Hope to make it over there to see you live sometime.
Take care.

Poem 2 of 230, WalkaboutsVerse
(please see my myspace blog): 
WALKABOUT WITH MY PEN 

Once drove an old sedan, up north, 
From a place in Sydney to Cairns; 
Then to Kuranda I went forth, 
By train, to look without set plans.

I browsed through the trendy market, 
With fresh fruits of tropical kind; 
Walked to the creek through lush thicket - 
Nature’s hand giving peace of mind.

I dined in a scenic cafe; 
Then, outside, as I wrote for yen, 
Some passing Kooris called-out: “Hey, 
You go walkabout with your pen.” 

Request or question, I don’t know -
Assured voices, elderly men.
That’s now several years ago, 
And I’ve seen the world - with my pen.
