It was Saturday, December 10th. We were driving up from North Carolina, Jim Nunally at the wheel, Keith Little riding shotgun, navigating. These two guys have done a lot of driving together and I was very happy to sit in the back seat and listen to Keith tell stories. Really good stories. READ MORE

"Loango utterly won me over, charmed me silly... As a bonus, there's a brief radio show by Nell and Cary Sheldon as the
Henriettas. Supposedly a sister act given to clucking like chickens. This pastiche of the Carter Family radio broadcasts is hilarious
and winsome."
Sing Out!Magazine
Nell has "one of the most refreshing voices in bluegrass. There is more than a little hint of Emmylou Harris (without the vibrato) and
a dash of Hazel Dickens. She shows promising songwriting chops, too." Mike Sadava,
Penguin Eggs Magazine (Canada)
"Robinson's heartfelt vocals and soaring harmonies are perfect for the traditional bluegrass standards and old country tracks..."
Michelle Broder Van Dyke, San Francisco Chronicle
"Nell Robinson never lets up on her twangy, clear-eyed tales, and neither do the various pickers, pluckers, and strokers of strings who join this heartfelt journey through Robinson’s Alabama roots."
Nate Seltenrich, East Bay Express
