They play music since quite some time, but it's only two years tht Mother Joanne and Daughter Haley Myrol have been performing together as the Duo Myrol. In Canada they've played major events and also toured New Zealand and Australia. Being on stage with stars such as Sammy Kershaw or the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band and getting Group of the Year awards as the one from Billy Block's Western Beat Magazine is no news to them.

Now they present their new Album Your Heart Is My Heart Too. As the CD starts off with Mother And Daughter, you immediately realize that these two artists will be more successful together than if each followed her own career. Their voices are in perfect harmony. Most of the songs on the CD are traditionally arranged and you can find Bluegrass, Country and Folksongs, peacefully cooperating on this album. However, the rocking side of things is no news to the Duo and they proof it with It Don't Work That Way, as an example.

My favorites are - beside the first song - the beautiful traditional If Hearts Could Really Be Broken and the track Summer. The eleven songs written by mama Joanne (whereof Haley has co-penned Paper Thin Walls) are only one side of the album. I wondered why The Beat Goes On would rock for more than thirteen minutes until I found two more excellent songs hidden in that track.

I always was a big admirer of duets and harmonies. The Sweethearts of the Rodeo made their way to the charts back in the 80's. Mother Joanne and daughter Haley Myrol represent the best I've heard ever since. www.myrolmusic.com
