"We had planned on having a string quartet at our wedding. While looking
on the web for groups, we ran across The Bards. We immediately called
Karen's dad, since he was footing the bill, and played Tolkien over
the phone. It was an instant hit and we later chose it as the solo
for our wedding ceremony. We decided to be a little different and
use Maids in the Meadow for the recessional. It was wonderful!" --Karen and Erik Hayden, Newlyweds "Voted Best of Austin for... # 3 None of the Above # 3 Strings: Marc Gunn, autoharp # 4 Misc Instrument: Andrew McKee, Recorder # 5 World Music # 6 Folk # 10 Song of the Year: Tolkien (The Hobbit & Lord of the Rings)" --Austin Music Awards 2002 "Among the most whimsical acts of SXSW 2002, the Austin-based Bards are masters of traditional folk. Like a Celt-Renaissance They Might Be Giants, albums like Marked by Great Size and their latest, A Faire to Remember are equal parts lilting melodies and good humor. Their song "Tolkien" is an unexpected MP3 hit." --Austin Chronicle "I've been involved in renaissance festivals for 9 years, and I've seen a lot of music groups, but I'd never felt compelled to purchase a tape or cd from any one of them until this year when I saw you crazy kids at the Slater, MO ren fest. You guys are fun and extraordinarily good at what you do. " --Kerry Durrill, Nagian "Im killing time here after sending a booking inquiry. I love your music. I started listening to your music from mp3 even before I joined the mailing list. Keep up the great work." --Virginia Renaissance Festival "The music makes the air sweeter the grass softer under my bare feet The girl across the lawn is prettier I feel calm and wise how absurd But that guy on roller blades feels as if he's having more fun And we eat and study a little happier" --Poetry given by anonymous UT student |
