"The vocal ensemble sensation of the decade."—CD Review"

...wondrous, essential, fabulously beautiful..."—Adam Rich, LA Weekly

"For sheer radiance, no one else comes close."—Billboard

"This performance of Long Time Traveling is the diary of our two journeys to the roots of Anglo-American spiritual vocal music. We sing nineteenth-century folk hymns and camp revival songs from the rural South, gospel songs originating in Northeastern cities and adopted in the late nineteenth century by rural Southerners, and a few more recently composed tunes as well. Each of these musical styles has played its own part in an interweaving of oral and written traditions, in which favorite older tunes have survived and flourished from one generation to the next. We love the fact that these tunes have been treasured by so many others before us." —Anonymous 4
