Faith Evans Ruch: Armed with confidence and a fresh batch of songs, Faith booked time at Music+Arts Studio to record. With producer Kevin Houston (North MS Allstars, Lucero, Patty Griffin) at the helm and session players like Luther Dickinson (North MS Allstars, Black Crowes) and Rick Steff (John Prine, Cat Power, Lucero), the 11 song set glides gracefully across the hills and valleys of the Souths sonic spectrum. Heavily influenced by her classic country roots, songs like Too Stupid to Cry ri...ng with a world-weary wisdom well beyond Ruchs 25 years. The resulting album, 1835 Madison, is anything but a throwback. Lead single PBR Song, with its easy melody and lilting horn lines, recalls the best moments of Cat Powers The Greatest, while Your Soul swings gently between its front porch rocking chair paced verses and free wheeling leaf-in-the-wind chorus.

Robert and Sue Ellen Cyphers have a similar past. We learned singing harmony and playing instruments on the platform of an old country church. They traveled full time for over six years in the music business and made an album that was played on Christian radio stations in the southwest before settling down in Chattanooga to raise a family. Northwood's style of music is a blend of songs that tell a story and feature harmony. We sing originals, gospel, old time, and folk music.
