Crow Girls features three original songs and a Celtic waltz that MaryAnn also
wrote. One of these days she'll get back into the studio and make a complete album. For
now, we hope you enjoy these, the most-requested pieces of hers from our fans.
Lyrics for each cut:
Big thanks to Brock Zeman for making this happen. His push was just what we needed and what an
excellent job he did. He also tracked down some of the finest musicians in the Ottawa Valley
(including himself) to back us up. Thanks to the talented musicians who played on these songs,
with an extra hug to Greg for lending his expertise and recording studio for extra bits. Major
props to Steve Foley, whose mixing/mastering skills gave us records that we love. We're so
grateful to Michael Babinski, for his gorgeous cover art on both albums. Thanks to photographers
Leslie Howle and D Staples for making us look good. A big shout-out to our regulars and fellow
musos from Patty's Pub who supported our music for so many years. We miss seeing you and hope
this brings back some happy Thursday-night memories. Thanks also to other dear friends, near
and far, and to Charles's readers around the globe, who've been asking for these
recordings. Love to our incredibly supportive family, who are probably our biggest and most
treasured fans of all. We are so fortunate to have you in our lives. And most of all, my
deepest love and gratitude to Charles, the best husband a woman could ever want. Words
cannot express what a kind, steadfast, loving, encouraging and absolutely brilliant man
that he is. This one's for you, Charles.
