Come All You Fair And Tender Ladies

July 7, 2024

A song that inspired a book by Lee Smith and is still being sung on the Grand Ol’ Opry by vocal group The Whites. Cara Dillon lends her pure soprano voice to this. Her Northern Irish accent amplifies her stunning performance. This is one of my favorite examples of how Martin and I played off each other. None of it was planned or pre-meditated. We ran through this song once in Cara’s kitchen before we recorded it on a gorgeous summer day in Frome

About Tim and Thomm

Their love for history, vintage guitars, and well-crafted songs brought the two together five years ago. “I’m such an admirer of Tim’s writing, singing, and playing. Making a duo record with Tim was a logical step and a dream come true for me,” notes Jutz. Stafford says, “Thomm is such a great, unique writer, player, and singer - we connected and found so many ideas that spoke to us both. Recording was a breeze!”

2022 Album with Tammy Rogers,  "Surely Will Be Singing."

About Tammy & Thomm

The pair met in 2016 when seated at the same table at a music industry gala, yet their creative paths had run parallel for years. Rogers may be best known as a co-founder and fiddler in the Grammy Award-winning bluegrass band, The SteelDrivers. Meanwhile, Grammy nominated Jutz toured as a guitarist for Mary Gauthier, Nanci Griffith, and David Olney before developing a reputation as one of bluegrass music’s most prolific songwriters. At the end of that industry event, they exchanged phone numbers intending to write together sometime. Five years later, they’re still collaborating on a near-weekly basis. Among a catalog of more than 140 songs, they selected a dozen of the best for Surely Will Be Singing.
