REVIEWS/A New Language 'Emily's is a beautiful voice, among the best on the scene. Al succeeds where many other 'super pickers' fail.' -Dirty Linen 'Contemporary folk music is thriving, thanks to sparkling, fresh releases by artists such as husband and wife Emily and Al Cantrell. Her acoustic guitar and sweet, soaring vocals are accented perfectly by his sparse harmonies and mandolin work. Emily wrote all ten of the songs ranging from thoughtful ballads to good-time tunes. The dynamic Dobro of Jerry Douglas stands out on four tracks.' -Rosenbaum, The Blade, Toledo, OH 'A joy to hear.' -Victory Review, Seattle, WA 'Emily Cantrell is a magnificent song smith... And within the being of these songs is the soul of bluegrass.' -Steve Romanoski, Bluegrass Music News 'A New Language draws you in after just one listen.' -The Patriot Ledger, Quincy, MA 'Avoiding all the cliches that make the genre a hoot, THE CANTRELLS write and play like hot pros. Well done organic set' -Midwest Record Recap Bio/ Emily Cantrell draws from her childhood on a Tennessee cotton farm, her musical theater experience, and her love of the Great American West to present a variety of original and traditional songs. "Emily simply has a beautiful voice - a velvety, expressive, rich soprano in a class with the best artists", says Bluegrass Unlimited. Her collusion with fiddle champion Al Cantrell since 1985 has produced 4 CDs and concerts in 33 states and Canada. The Cantrells live in Nashville, Tennessee. They often tour the Rocky Mountain states.
