The Cartridge Family – Live in Person! 

While giving a sincere musical nod to early country groups like The Carter Family and The Delmore Brothers, The Cartridge Family have developed their old time country style and their gorgeous three part harmonies into a truly unique sound. 

Sarah Carroll on guitar, ukulele and vocals adds both a beautiful energy and smart-mouthed sass to the group as she sings songs like ‘Grandpa Loved the Pixies’ and ‘School of Country Music’. 

Acclaimed alt-country performer, Suzannah Espie brings her strong yet soulful voice and formidable mandolin skills to the party. Her stunning lead vocals on ‘Another Place Another Time’ and the beautiful ‘Somewhere I Can Hear the Birds’ are pure joy.

Double bassist Rusty Berther, formerly of comedy duo The Scared Weird Little Guys has penned most of the tracks on the album, utilising his witty word skills to bring us mirthful songs like ‘Megan The Vegan’, ‘Bad Tambourine’ and the crowd favourite ‘Ain’t No Babies Named Gordon No More’

Fiddle virtuoso Greg Field, drum marvel Jack O’Dell and Telecaster riffmeister Nicky Del Rey add their considerable musical chops to the 14 original songs that make up the album.
