1/1/11 – SALLY BARRIS

Here is the Music Player. You need to installl flash player to show this cool thing!

Oh I do love to hear Sally Barris sing. The first time I ever heard her, I fell in love with her song Let the Wind Chase You. I later found out that Trisha Yearwood covered the song. That Trisha. She has some damn fine taste in songs, I tell you. But, I really love to hear Sally sing it. She has not recorded it yet, but I found a video that I have included below.

Sally has managed to be successful in the mainstream world of country music without giving up her folk & Celtic roots. Her songs have been covered by Trisha Yearwood, Martina McBride, Lee Ann Womack, Kellie Pickler, and Kathy Mattea.

Sally tours from time to time as part of The Waymores (w/Don Henry & Tom Kimmel) and I love listening to all of them. Good music. That’s what it’s all about and Sally is a fine writer. Fine singer. Yes.

Listen and enjoy. Click the link and buy a song or two and please, post a comment if you feel like it.
