   About The GinSangers

At a GinSangers concert you can expect to hear two sweet voices with a touch of twang and that special mother-daughter blend delivered by Connie Townsend and daughter Rose Bell. You'll also hear rock solid rhythm guitar, sweet and true fiddle and there's Dave Parker who might jump in on any of a number of instruments including dobro, resonator, guitar or banjo. Dave can also get the crowd going with his witty sense of humor. Connie and Dave are award winning songwriters. At a GinSangers show, you'll hear a mix of originals and cover songs that range in flavor from country, blues and swing to traditional.

Praise forThe Weight of Light

"This is real mountain soul, the kind of hillbilly-infused music that captures the true dignity and spirit of an entire place and its people. The Ginsangers manage to simultaneously take the listener back in time while also putting their own fresh, contemporary spin on their songs. Connie Townsend's voice, Rose Bell's fiddle (not to mention her harmonies), and Dave Parker's fine handling of guitar ... and more all combine into one of the best old-time bands out there today."

--Silas House, contributing editor for NO DEPRESSION magazine, author of CLAY'S QUILT--

Hi! Good to hear from you! I’m doing pretty good. Just got back from the U.K a couple of weeks ago, which was wonderful. You’ll have to read my blog about my visit when you get a chance. Now I’m back to work and staying busy there along with the music-I’m trying to finish 2 new songs. Life’s just non-stop isn’t it? : ) Hope you have a great week!
