Mom’s Home Cookin’ delights in uncovering the treasure of an old song long forgotten. Both women have a long history of individual experience as performers, and have entertained audiences of all ages and interests in a variety of venues. As Mom’s Home Cookin’, their repertoire includes hundreds of songs, from old time bluegrass to folk songs of the 1960's; from classic country gems to Victorian parlor songs; from a country blues tune from the 1920's to contemporary treasures by little-known songwriters. Their most recent CD release, “Pot Luckâ€, on their own Home Cooked Records label, follows their debut recording, “Give Me The Rosesâ€, which garnered praise from listeners and the professional music community, and received airplay in several US cities and in Europe.
Performing on guitars, banjos, autoharp, and Appalachian dulcimer, as well a unique array of percussive gadgets, their eclectic style and exceptional vocal blend will warm the hearts of any audience. Their informal, humorous and personal style is down home and uplifting. The music of Mom’s Home Cookin’ is comfort food for the soul and a welcome treat for the ears.
