Have you discovered any new musicians, or recordings, that you want to tell the Cat about? Here's a couple. They're on my mp3.com links page

I got a nice note from an mp3.com duo a few weeks ago saying they liked my mp3s and inviting me to check out theirs. So I had a look at Syren 13. My initial reaction was, anh, they're way too cute to be good, and they're playing that old chestnut, "Do You Love An Apple" (OK, that's a mixed metaphor...) but i gave it a listen...hoo boy was I wrong. Can these girls ever harmonize, and the accompaniment is just the kind of tasteful understatement that true folkies adore... listen for yourself.

Another great collection of Celtic work is at the site of my friends Nathan Curry and Linda Miller. Nathan's been a major musical mentor of mine (MMMoM) for over twenty years (yikes) and it's great to see Nathan and Linda starting to focus on their duo performance...the long awaited new CD has to be coming someday...right?

One other band, which gets relatively little attention for some reason, is Us3, a young, innovative instrumental group from the Scottish Borders.

Those are my suggestions for a Sunday morning websurf. What are yours?
