Some people are simply born to sing. Such is the case with Amy Fradon, whose intoxicating voice gently lifts her songs and sends them into graceful
flight on Passion Angel. Even more stunning are the beautifully braided harmonies (often with Amanda Rothenberg) that waft like gossamer over
gorgeous melodies, revealing both Fradon's songwriting and production talents.
Tender, joyous, and heartfelt, Fradon's music testifies to the fertile musical soil of the Woodstock, New York scene in which she has immersed herself
over the years. The playing is tasteful, always augmenting yet never encroaching upon the melody. Tim Moore (guitar) and Mark Murphy (bass, cello)
add a warm, woody, organic sound on most tracks, while Neil Eisenberg's Hammond B2 provides a soulful underscore. Fradon enlists other familiar Hudson
Valley names, like Artie Traum (guitar), Jay Ungar (mandolin), John Sebastian (harmonica), and Rick Danko (vocals), all of whom create a rich,
mesmerizing blend of Americana that may keep this CD in your player for a long time.
"The highlight of the day was the beautiful guitar and voice of Amy Fradon. She played her voice the way many musicians aspire to master their
instruments. The way that Amy brings the audience into her songs with tales of their conception is a treat all its own."
— South Florida Folk Festival
