Paul Kamm & Eleanore MacDonald
"I heard Paul Kamm and Eleanore MacDonald at 4:30 in the morning and was sure I must have been dreaming, I pulled them aside the next day and made them sing again to prove that it wasn't a mirage, and they are for real, GREAT writing and harmonies that can fuse your spine." - Ellis Paul
Modern folk musicians Paul Kamm and Eleanore MacDonald, from Nevada City, CA., have been writing and performing original, contemporary folk music for 28 years. A blend of contemporary and traditional styles, their music is graced by exquisite harmony, compelling songwriting, deceptively simple arrangements and intricate guitar work… all embraced by great heart. They’ve been applauded throughout the US as well as overseas for the lyrical content of their songs and vocal blend…a haunting style which weaves unique harmonies into a rich tapestry of guitar work and storytelling.
The birth of MaMuse as told by Sarah Nutting and Karisha Longaker
The Muse fell from the sky one night and landed in the spaces between our heart beats.
She instantly took a liking to the rhythm in our chests, and her sweet melody joined the pulse.
One of us picked up father bass, and thumped it’s belly in response.
The other picked up father mandolin, and plucked its ribs.
Mother guitar and sister flute could not resist being a part of such sweet merriment and soon joined in.
The Earth, hearing the whole incident, called out words of inspiration and encouragement.
“Yes!… keep going!”
When the Earth calls, one must listen….. So we opened our hearts and let sweet harmony roll off of our tongues. In unison our voices shot out into the deep of night and a star fell from the heavens; the magic spark!
MaMuse is born.
