CD now available at our online store. Click here for details.
From The Boston Globe: "The music of Maine folk singer Bok is like a universe unto itself, a roughhewn land filled with hardscrabble people, rascals in high places, and a natural world that is both cruel and kind, deadly and nurturing." Read this review and more...

News From Carol:
Carol continues to improve from the stroke in the fall of 2004. Recently she was interviewed for an article published for the Wellness section of the Portland Press Herald. The name of the article,"My Days Are Filled with Miracles" sums up the inspiring attitude that Carol has applied to her recovery. She considers her improvement "an ongoing project." She's looking forward to accompanying Gordon on tours- this fall to the Pacific Northwest and Alaska, and various venues next Spring. Coming on the fourth anniversary of her stroke, Carol maintains "There are angels everywhere. Thank you for your continued ecouragement and cheering. It's made all the difference."
