Two Roads Home Sometimes a change....sometimes a rest..... Dear fans, friends and family, It's with sadness that we announce an indefinite hiatus for Two Roads Home after over 20 years of performing together. Due to an unspecified arthritic condition and several years of almost constant pain, Bryan has chosen to take a moratorium on guitar playing for the time being. Bryan has joined Abby on her new CD Local Honey, as co-writer and collaborator on many of the tracks. It also doesn't mean that the situation is permanent. With ongoing care, rest and attention, Bryan hopes to be able to play again, pain free. Local Honey is available through Abby’s web site www.abbyzmusic.com. You can also find her on
We have such gratitude to every one of you for all of your support over the years, following us as we've travelled the road of this cherished musical friendship together. With appreciation and warmth, -Abby and Bryan Two Roads Home Dovetailing CD Release Party at The Renaissance Café in Toronto Photos by Shelley Siersma and Debbie Bergson See the pictures The Band/The Party Roads Traveled - TRH's Photo Gallery |

“A lovely CD – (Williston and Zotz’s) voices feel like they were designed for each other and the musicianship is top drawer.” “Comfortable but spirited vocal harmonies easily hold the listener while presenting fresh arrangements of traditional material and their own contemporary original songs.” “A sumptuous collection of tunes both contradictory and dynamic. Allison (track 6) is a pop confection.” “Their songs double as storytelling, with smart lyrics, and voices and music that are as emotive as they are distinctive.” “An excellent record!” - Allison Brown - For the Folk, CHRW, London “I really like the way TRH combines both more traditional folky elements with acoustic pop.” - Joni Sadler - Program Director, CHUO FM Ottawa "From soothing to lively. A very listenable recording." - Lee Graves - Bluffs Monitor PRAISE FOR TRH’S DEBUT CD, DOVETAILING: "A fine addition to the Celtic collection" - Holmes Hooke - " Zotz has a very fine voice. Appealing songs appealingly performed. - John Arkelian - ARTSforum, Summer/Fall 2004 "...serene, historical, contemplative, lyrical and utterly inspiring." - Marney Simmons - "Excellent singers (who) harmonize well." - Peter Massey - Green Man Review |
