CD Reviews

This ain't your parents folk music.

Ivan | San Diego, CA, USA | 05/12/2005

(5 out of 5 stars)

"The mixture between sweet voices and disturbing lyrics makes this a hauntingly original band, in a world of bland music and silicon breasts. Them music is simple, lending itself to a contrast with the beautiful voices. The look of shock on my face when I first listened to them must have been hilarious. Pay careful attention to these two ladies, they might surprise you. Oh, one last thing. If you are offended by pretty much anything, you might be better off finding some kind of classical boringness to fill out your musical monotony. If you enjoy thoughts of mangy buffalo's roaming through the wilderness, then this might be right up your alley. Hilariety with some off the wall concepts and laguage usage. I'd give it two fingers up."

Folk Uke are brilliant!

"I first heard about Folk Uke in the Boston Phoenix and had to hear it for myself! I definitely wasn't disappointed because what you have on this CD are some hilarious tongue-in-cheek songs done by two daughters of famous artists. Not that this should be the selling point, because had I not heard who this was, I still would have been intrigued (but to be honest, it made me more interested!). As for the songs, they're light folky little ditties sung in lilting harmonies with clever lyrics (and at times offensive to some people). Knock Me Up is one of my favorites, as well as In Case We Die. And there's a great cover of I Still Miss Someone by Johnny Cash. All in all it's a great CD that I would recommend to anyone interested in hearing something fun and different!"

Incredible Music, Incredible People

"Amy and Cathy are truly incredible musicians and this album shows it perfectly. It is simple yet powerful which, to me, is the best sign of great music. There is nothing better than allowing true artists to be themselves with no studio cover up. They could sit down anywhere, any time and make beautiful music. How refreshing! Yet, not only are they great musicians, they are great people. Keep it up!"
