Emith is songwriter Carol Ann Ives and guitarist Stevie Gurr. Carol is a newcomer but sounds like a veteran, with a gloomy vocal style reminiscent of Aimee Mann. Gurr has a longer musical resume, having toured with Elvin Bishop and Dr. John.
.. an interestingly dark take on the two guitars, one singer set-up. This is not your father’s folk music. Don’t head to the coffee shop expecting Joan Baez...

...described by a critic as “wide-ranging as Fleetwood Mac meets acoustic Led Zeppelin, Aimee Mann, Emmylou Harris and BB King all in one kind of edgy sandwich…
... a musical recipe that includes blues, folk, country and rock with some Celtic mysticism mixed in there somewhere. - Tom Martin Elko Daily Free Press, 8/05

You can be your own wacky bad self too.
We want to thank all of you who voted in the January Enchantress Radio competition. Unfortunately, technology being what is it, the server crashed in the middle of the competition and all the votes were lost, so the competition was effectively over. Bummer as we were in first by a long stretch.
