"The musicianship is stellar"  

-John Apice, Americana Highways 

"Morgan Carnes sings with a voice that is completely unique. She has a clarity that reminds one of placid water that brings the joy of being able to understand every word.” 

-Maria Beth, Sunrise Meanderings

"Mixing genres such as bluegrass style playing, Americana, and excellent guitar solos to uplift your mood"

-Damien Reid, Illustrate Magazine  

 "It’s entertaining music that’s well-thought-out & performed. You can almost smell the dew on the grass & the coffee on the stove. Nice stuff."

-John Apice, Americana Highways 

"full of truly blissful energy and a sea of emotions"

-Gifted Balance Records

"It is very encouraging and to be applauded that two young American musicians can compose brand new bluegrass songs that still have a hint of cozy 'old time' music about them. 'Humbletown' is a nice addition to the traditional music genre and we suspect that we will be offered more beautiful things from this duo in the coming years."
