I just got my new Dirty Linen and contained therein is an ad for a new Woods Tea Co. CD. It sounded too familiar and though I've done the search here I can't find the mudcat connection with this group.

Any help?

They've been around quite a while, probably with personel changes and they are from Vermont........

I saw them once at Silver Dollar City. I thought they were very good.

Thanks for the replies. I thought I had remembered (mistakenly as it turns out) that one of their members was a mudcatter.

http://woodstea.net/ is the Website of this group. I haven't seen them live, but I sure like their recordings. They do a great job on Foolish Questions - and they do well on more serious stuff, too.

When I saw them (admittedly several years ago) I thought they were boring. Maybe they have changed since then. Every song/tune sounded just like the other songs/tunes.

I've seen them many times (Burlington first night has become a tradition with us). They're not groundbreaking, but they're solid and fun.

Is that intended as a criticism? Isn't that pretty much a prerequisite for commercial success in music today?

Have you given a listen to a few of the Sensitive Young Singer-Songwriters?

These guys seem to me to be a well kept secret. I had never heard of them until yesterday when I found their music available on Live365. Their style is what I have often called "uptown folk" but do deliver a consistently high quality sound along with a rather broad repertoire. If the cuts I've heard from their "live" album are any indication, they probably put on a rather good show. In another thread they were mentioned in the same breath as The Kingston Trio. I can understand why. It surprises me that I've not heard of them before now. Frankly, I like them a lot.
