You could call it an attraction…a curiosity…an anticipation of surprise and delight.
But there’s a better word to describe what the music of The Greencards inspires...
Fascination.
If you’ve followed this multinational threesome over these past five years, you know the feeling. From
their personal histories through the content of their work, grounded in deep musical tradition but elevated
by breathtaking technique and conceptual adventurousness, there is ample reason for interest … for
excitement …
For Fascination.
Now, with their Sugar Hill Records debut, it’s official. Fascination describes the essence of this band. It was,
first of all, their fascination with American roots music – bluegrass especially – that drew singer/bassist Carol
Young and multiple string-instrument master Kym Warner from Australia to Austin, Texas, where they began
performing together, and later to their current home base in Nashville.
