Review Comments: These sisters are amazing; love this CD! I heard 'Time to Grow' on the radio and decided to take a chance and check out their CD - it's fantastic! Kind of reminiscent of the Wreckers gone a little Celtic? The harmonies are beautiful, and the music is both inspiring and a little haunting in the depth of it's melodies - but not in a sad way, in a moving way, the way only Irish music can do. But it's not really Irish...hmmm...having a hard time pegging these talented sisters into a musical hole, and that's a good thing. Highly recommended!

Great song




Album Rating: (5 of 5 stars)
Review Comments: Usually I do not listen to music in this genre. I found this song checking out free downloads on Amazon. Let me tell you that it is one of my favorite songs right now. My 12 y/o loves the strings in this song and I love the vocals. I read the Wiki entry on these young women and I am impressed. I am a soul, blues and R & B fan and even though this song would not be considered such I hear a soulfulness in it that I love.
A Wonderful Find

Review Comments: Wife and I were sitting in our home workroom one afternoon when she pulled out a magazine. "Look up some of these musicians." she said. One of the groups on the list was The Lovell Sisters. I fired up ITMS and played a few of the clips. After listening to the clips, I bought "Time to Grow."
I am pleased I did. This work grows on me as I listen to it. Although I'm not a huge bluegrass fan, I appreciate good music in many genres and continue to expand my knowledge of good music. This work represents "good music."
Their playing is very good and their voices blend exceptionally well. There is an innocence about the music, perhaps a purity, that I find refreshing.
If you like the bluegrass/Americana genre of music, then you should give The Lovell Sisters a good listen. Spend some time with the music and I think it will grow on you. It sure has on me.
brilliant

Review Comments: I bought this album digitally before the cd release date.
Simply put, it is a brilliant second album.
This is my favorite ensemble singing by a contemporary bluegrass/Americana/acoustic string music group. There are many wonderful individual singers out there, of course, but no existing *group* I know of matches the Lovell Sisters for beautiful two- and three-part harmony singing.
For harmony singing this good in a bluegrass band I'd have to go back to the Stanley Bros (with Carter) or Bill Monroe's Blue Grass Boys. I know this is extremely high praise, but it's the truth, to my ears anyway.
The playing is also wonderful, a big step beyond the playing of the first album (which was already pretty darn good). They play together with an elegant complexity that never sounds "overplayed" (that is, each note counts -- they avoid empty displays of technical virtuosity).
The album shows a lot of promise in the area of songwriting, as well. The original songs are impressively good and make me excited about the songs that are still to come.
This album gets better each time I listen to it. If you like beautiful, tasteful singing and playing, check it out.
