A devoted fan base follows these three musicians from coast to coast to hear the shimmering three part harmonies and award winning songs that have earned them an international reputation. They are commonly referred to as the #1 vocal group on the contemporary-folk music circuit.

.. In 1988, Atlantic Records chairman Ahmet Ertegun heard them and signed them immediately to his record company. Their CD "Walking On Ice" was released to critical acclaim in 1988. Its title track reached the Top 20 on the national AC charts and was a breakthrough NAC hit. They immediately began work on their next CD "Bye Bye Route 66" which was released in January 1992.

.. From the folk clubs in the sixties and seventies to the major label debut in 1988 on Atlantic Records, this group known for their exceptional songwriting and stunning vocal harmonies has never stopped growing. This band has a lot to sing about and a great way of singing it.
