Joanne Crabtree and Paul Mills (a.k.a. Curly Boy Stubbs) are known
individually as pioneers in the Canadian roots music arena.

In January 2006, Joanne and Paul decided to make Crabtree & Mills, the CD.
It was conceived as a series of stripped-down duets between her voice and
his acoustic guitar. The playlist would be several pop standards, some
country covers, and any originals written during the production period. In
February, they did a show together before a sold-out house in Toronto. That
night, the music they made was so exciting, and the chemistry between them
so strong, folks stood up and cheered - and Crabtree & Mills, the duo, was
born.

Paul says, "I love playing with Joanne. There's a great sense of fun and
musicality in everything we do. The material she brings to the duo is always
interesting and stretches me as a guitarist."

Joanne says, "On stage with Paul, I feel as if I've come home. Our musical
styles fit hand in glove. Whether the song is a clever Cole Porter standard,
or one of our own compositions, Paul's sparkling and mischievous playing
encourages me to put my heart and soul into every note I sing".
