On Blue Horse, their debut CD, three young Canadian songbirds (Frazey Ford, Samantha Parton and Trish Klein) join the neo-trad movement that has given us such notable voices as Iris DeMent and Gillian Welch. But where Welch finds inspiration in the dark hollows and tragic tales of Appalachian music, the Be Good Tanyas seek out sweetness and light, revelling in the interplay of their beautifully trilling voices. Blue Horse is deeply rooted but no exercise in old-time purism; originals outnumber traditional songs, and the core accompaniment of guitar and banjo is often supplemented by bass and drums, creating a lilt redolent of Rickie Lee Jones in "The Littlest Birds" and a reggae-tinged groove on the haunting old ballad "Rain and Snow". The band name may be a bit tough to get your lips around, but the music of this talented trio is a refreshing drink from a clear mountain stream. --Jeffrey Pepper Rodgers

    5.0 out of 5 stars The Be Good Tanyas Are Amazing
    Reviewed in the United States on 1 December 2005
    Verified Purchase
    Late last night I was driving between New York City and my home in East Hampton. I was listening to a new cd (well, new for me, the album is from 2000) by a group of female singers called The Be Good Tanyas. They are absolutely amazing. They play music that is kind of folky, bluegrassy--though mutedly so--and traditional, though none of those labels really describe what they do.

    There are three female singers, and their voices are plaintive, sweet, forlorn, and gorgeous. They accompany themselves on guitar, banjo and mandolin, and the music has a purity and simplicity that allows it to be piercing and haunting. Their harmonies braid and intertwine and make you want to sing along with them (which believe me you do not want to hear when I do it), and then make you want to shut up and listen, because their singing is so gorgeous you need to be silent in order to appreciate it.

    Not a bad song on the album, but check out their renderings of two traditionals: "lakes of ponchartrain" and "oh susanna" to see what these women can really do. If you had told me I would LOVE a version of that old chestnut "oh susanna" I would have thought you completely bananas, but fact is, it is amazing.

    Blue Horse was the perfect music for being alone in a car hurtling through the night darkness thinking of love and loss and past and future which I was doing. This is the best cd I have purchased in a long time. I also recommend their second cd, Chinatown, and am waiting breathlessly for the third (oh please hurry up!).

    5.0 out of 5 stars Musik vom feinsten
    Reviewed in Germany on 3 March 2016

    Nun ja, über die Musik sich auch noch auszulassen, hieße Eulen nach Athen tragen. Die CD klingt wunderbar. Es fehlen nur die Songtexte. Der Klang ist Lichtjahre entfernt vom Geschreie Quotenradiotauglicher Schreihälse mit Loudnesswar wie......ach, lassen wir das. Hätte mir gerne auch die Vinyl-LP zugelegt, da ich eine wirkliche HighEndAnlage habe. Wird aber nur 1 x gebraucht für über 430 Dollar !!!!! angeboten. Schade. Aber verarschen kann ich mich selber. Sollen darauf sitzen bleiben. Nachtrag: es sind jetzt schon € 439 . Profitgeier.
