This recording reflects our own style of Appalachian Celtic music – a style influenced by mountain culture, heritage, and the magical spirit of songs and tunes. The CD has a 12 page insert with our notes and insights about the 16 selections. The songs are on our website (Song Lyrics ) and we hope you will sing along!

“A wonderful selection of songs and tunes, Mountain Thyme’s vintage harmonies, creative and lovely instrumental arrangements…”

(Doug Orr, Founder of the Swannanoa Gathering at Warren Wilson College)

“The title of this album says it all. It will make you smile. These four women skillfully produced this meaningful recording. The Celtic, mountain music feel of the CD all but sums up the Appalachian culture.”

“This music is a thick as a Guinness with rich creamy Celtic offerings...”

(Dave Lavender, The Herald Dispatch)

“Mountain Thyme features the vocal talents of four women who also play a wide array of acoustic instruments including guitar, mandolin, bass, banjo, bouzouki, autoharp and wooden and silver flutes. Their music is graceful, with loving attention to the harmony and the arrangement of their many instruments. The playing is not dazzling, but always tasteful and just right for the mostly traditional tunes. One of the modern songs is Dave Carter and Tracy Grammer’s “The Mountain,” which is led by a djembe beat into “Connaughtman’s Ramble.” A warm celebration by four fine musicians.”    

(Mike Devlin, Music Matters Review)
