WVA Program 94
(Rounder Records, 13 selections; 50:08)
Voted top female vocalist in 1992 (by the International Bluegrass Music Association), Laurie Lewis' story is that she skillfully delivers and writes many forms of music. From traditional to folk, country, Cajun, blues, jazz and bluegrass, her writing, playing, and singing are right on the mark with heart. Each song included on True Stories has the ring of truth, not one feels like "filler." Produced by Mike Marshall and Laurie Lewis, with support from her band Grant Street and a stellar line-up of guests... this album is another giant step in her already remarkable journey. Fine work.
