Ferron's show here in Santa Cruz about 2 months back was an absolutely
stunning performance, full of humor, heartbreakingly great songs, and
extremely fine musicianship. Go see her if you have a chance.
One point to make, though: Ferron is no fresh young thang. She's been doing
this for a long, long time. She actually came up from the women's music
scene back in the 70s. What I consider to be her best album, Testimony, was
released in 1980.
But don't let that stop you--Ferron has always been good; she has seasoned
into being great!

Snip Thankyou for this--as soon as my son gives me the headphones for
the computer or gets some more I'll ck it out! She sounds like a fresh young
thang doin her fresh young stuff--and that's fine with me!
