Robin and Linda Williams and their fine Friends
Robin and Linda Williams, the Virginia-based duo known for their rich harmonies and original songwriting, are joined in concert by Jim Watson, a founding member of the Red Clay Ramblers, on bass and his distinctive harmony vocals, and bluegrass veteran Jimmy Gaudreau on mandolin and mandola. For more than a quarter of a century they have delighted audiences large and small with a blend of bluegrass, folk, old-time and acoustic country that truly merits the title of "American music." Just released on Red House Records, Robin and Linda's new CD, Deeper Waters, is a selection of personal and strong songs that has been described as nothing more than a masterpiece by the All Music Guide. Their previous cd, "Visions Of Love," stayed on the Americana Charts soon after its release January 2002 and was rated in the top five of both the Folk and Bluegrass charts on Roots Music Report. Robin and Linda Williams have gained recognition from a variety of sources, winning a nomination from their colleagues at the International Bluegrass Music Association for "Gospel Recorded Performance of the Year" (1995's Good News). In 1998 they received a Crossroads Music Gold Star Award for the best Contemporary Folk CD of 1998 and listed in the top 10 "Album Of The Year." (Devil of a Dream) They have appeared on The Grand Ole Opry, "Austin City Limits," American "Mountain Stage," "Music City Tonight," and have enjoyed the rejuvenation of The Hopeful Gospel Quartet on Garrison Keillor's "A Prairie Home Companion." They have performed in venues ranging from Philadelphia and Kerrville Folk Festivals, to bluegrass-oriented festivals such as Winterhawk, Wings & Strings and the Delaware Valley Bluegrass Festival, to arts centers and concert halls in dozens of states and countless clubs and coffeehouses - not only across the US, but in Canada and Europe as well.
