10 of the coolest songs to come to roots country fans in quite a while. Glenn Allan and Kim Mackenzie harmonize like peas and carrots. Flaco Jimenez adds the south Texas flavor to this album with his accordion work. This is no run of the mill release. Country fans will love this album. This CD should be on country radio everywhere!"

"Allan and Mackenzie have crafted a 10-cut CD that showcases their instrumental prowess, engaging vocals and Allan''s lyrics. Part country, part folk, part Tex-Mex and all Texas...it''s a mixture that works. The disc sounds great."

Hotter than a jalapeno, cooler than the other side of the pillow, this multi-talented, multi-instrumentalist, singer-songwriter duo harmonizes like few artists can.
Their diverse backgrounds and love of similar musical styles bring elements of Americana, folk, country, blues, honky-tonk and Tex-Mex sounds into concert, with a decidedly Texas flavor.
Guitar, fiddle, mandolin, accordion and upright bass all come together with those magical harmonies to create a melodic blend that is much more than the sum of it''s parts.
Superb musicianship, intelligent songwriting and absolute professionalism complete the package, to produce a strong show every night.
"Paradise, Texas" is a state of mind, of life, of love. The Tex-Mex accordion of Grammy-winning Flaco Jimenez, complemented by the solid, swinging bass lines of fellow Texas Tornadoes/Doug Sahm alumnus Jack Barber, defines the border sound. The instrumental prowess and perfectly matched voices of Glenn and Kim make this collection of memorable songs -- Paradise, Texas.
