Carla, Miriam and Hal pull from their eclectic musical backgrounds, including folk, classical, bands from the 60s and 70s, Jewish and mid-eastern, Renaissance, and Celtic, always striving to stay faithful to their sources and still allow for personal style. All three live in Denver, raising their respective families and juggling careers and the music habit. Some surprise guests may appear at any time.
