What are people saying about the NEW Sheets Family CD.

"...one of the areas most beloved acoustic music acts" - David Brewer, High Country Press.

The Sheets Family CD exemplifies family in many ways, from the wonderful mother-daughter harmony singing, original songs dealing with community, friends and changing times, and the husband-wife duets of old familiar songs from the southern mountains. This CD brings the Sheets family right to your living room. It has my wife and I tapping our toes and singing along, and it brings a smile to our three-month daughter when she is on the verge of fussing.
