Saw you Dec. 13th in Phoenixville, great show. I enjoyed the BBC talent and your mixing with the crowd. I saw you with my son and his friend, Jeff. I got the new CD to enjoy.

Hi,
Found you today while looking up are fairies real? Your site came up, I listened to some of your music, and fell in love with it. I'm 56 and disabled and alone {all my kids r grown}, anyway, when I get a few extra bucks, I will be ordering a shirt and cd. Thanks for making my day!!
p.s. I only live about 45 minutes away so I might be up for some of your shows in 2010.
Again, thank you,
Kathleen M. Menna

Dear old pal Genna,
I'm so happy for you that you have this successful FUN performing trio - and 2 CDs already - and such amazing parents, my old friends Tom and Alison. (Your 2 sisters are no slouches either,lets remember!) You're an inspiration to me with all your young zeal for the tunes, the dance, and the songs ! I wish we could play all the time together instead of just every July in Cape May at the Chalfonte. Wishing you and Rose and Lou many more years of satisfying work, accolades and good times. Can't wait to hear the new CD.
love Betsy

Hi Louie! John told me about this sight, so while I can't see and hear your group in person, it's fun to visit with you though this site. Rose was just a little peanut when I last visited you. What a beautiful and accomplished young woman she has become! Genna, too, is an amazing talent and I can see the fun you all have during your performances. One day I'll get back East and hear you.

Frank Green, Driver Ed teacher, Perk Valley HS

April 13, 2008

Caught your show at Sellersville last night as you opened for Tempest. I was captivated by your talent and the internal chemistry within your group. That's what makes a live show so memorable. I'll be looking for you down the road and mentioning your name in other circles to try and help build your fan base. Bought "Catharsis" last night and listened to it already. Loved it. Looking forward to the next one. Much success to you all.

Seth Love

March 6, 2008

Hey how yall' doing! We went to Celtic Fest this past September and saw you all in the Ice House. You were awesome! My sister has been playing the fiddle for a year and a half and was inspired by you to keep on playing. The CD is great! Yall' have to make another one! I put it on my iPod and listen to it all the time. God bless and take care.

John and I listened to the CD. As you know I am half Irish half English although I was raised in London. John was raised in Manchester area but lived in Ireland for ten years. It is his country of choice and would live there if he could. We were both trying to come up with a response to the CD. We have many CDs on Irish music and there are times when we say "enough - turn it off".

With your CD, words like REFRESHING, ECLECTIC, MULTIFACETED, ENCHANTING for a start. We really enjoyed it. Do these talented young women dance too - maybe I shouldn't leave Lou out of it!!! Does he dance?

I just wanted to let you know how excited I was to hear about the upcoming new CD. I have not been able to get out much to the gigs but play the first CD all the time. (My seven year old daughter loves it and is excited to start her violin lessons next year!!) Take care and God Bless.

Bruce Meyer

January 29, 2008

Great music. Great CD. Loved your show in Emmaus. Genna, how was the poutine in Montreal? Have you guys thought of touring in Canada at the Highland games in Montreal and Maxville, Ontario? They would love you!

I can't imagine how exciting it must have been for Lou's family to have found Bridget Cleary's house. Wish I'd have been there. I love the pic of the house...and it's not even raining.

The play will be awesome, especially that you know much of the background. I hope the director keeps close to the truth.

I'd imagine you'll be visiting Ireland again. How wonderful that will be. Glad you're in touch with the brother of one of the new owners.

I love your music and energy. I know you have a bright, musical career before you!

Dear Mr. Baldino,
I just wanted to thank you so much for the CD. Dr. Shulman gave it to me and I think it is just fantastic.
You all are so talented.
I was shocked to read the Bio on the girls to see that they are so young. They are truly amazing.
I would love to hear you in concert. Keep me on your email list.
Thanks again,
Sincerely,
Beth Homa- Dr. Shulman's Irish dancing nurse

You all sounded great as always! Thanks for keeping me posted on where you are playing. The whole family enjoys your music; you inspire my kids! Thanks!

Sean Ickes

October 10, 2007

I was walking through the Celtic Classic a couple of weeks ago and heard you playing and you stopped me dead in my tracks. I came in and sat and stayed because the energy and skill you played with was truly engrossing. The 'tight'ness of your sound is all the more impressive given the two girls (Whom I assumed must be two young women who simply didn't look their age which I presumed to be mid-twenties) are still gaining skill. It was a great performance, thank you.

Valerie

October 10, 2007

Come to New Jersey. We love you here.

Bruce

October 7, 2007

Great performances at Celtic Classic! I don't think I'd heard you do "Auchindoon" live before. Looking forward to the next CD.

You were terrific at Green Lane Saturday night!!

Great dance music - I was the guy dancing in front of the stage. My feet just couldn't be still.

Jim Miller

September 10, 2007

We loved you guys at the Festival over the weekend in Green Lane. We look forward to seeing you again in the future. Those bugs were so bad Saturday evening. I don't know how you did it. I think it was a quiet crowd because everyone was tired from the heat that day. Good luck with your future.
