“Motherlode sings and plays just about everything under the sun, including folk, country, blues, pop and rock. You name it, they do it, always with grace, style and elan. . . Pendergast does most of the lead vocals, and she can belt it out or, if need be, soar like an angel. Meyer has a deep, rich voice which she uses to advantage. Harrison slides back and forth with eas between fiddle and mandolin . . . They enjoy working together and get carried away by theri music. The result is a toe-tapping, hand-clapping, exhilarating evening that has the joint jumpin’ with joy.”

The three women who are Motherlode, Gaye Harrison, Wendy Meyer and Althea Pendergast, have been playing music and been friends since 1989.
