"This down to earth women's group
brings a new meaning to a cappella
with songs of the earth, rivers, and
the power of love. IRIS's CD includes
just enough voices with variety,
skillfully arranged for a collection
of compelling pieces."
"In the world beat/ gospel inflections
of A Season of Song, IRIS takes its
place in the new vocal folk vanguard
which embraces both Sweet Honey in
the Rock and the Bulgarian Women's
Chorus. The CD's upbeat anthems
extol peace, a woman's right to
choose, and the acceptance of
cultural diversity." | ||

Eleven great tunes include favorites like "The Rivers of Babylon" (traditional), "Salty Fish" (with rhythm section) and "Sweet Guru Child" (pop a cappella). Heart wrenching ballads, rocking spirituals, jazzy up-tempos - all in that un-categorize-able IRIS style.
"The strong, clear voices are easy and
enjoyable to listen to. Their style is a
gentle blend of contemporary and folk
sensibilities." |
