Their sound has a sweet, intimate feeling, reminiscent of Simon and Garfunkel that transports you to that special place in your mind where you can thoroughly enjoy the moment. You can imagine you are relaxing in their living room, enjoying great music after a great meal, as part of the family."

WATERCARVERS GUILD is quickly emerging as one of the Northwest’s best acoustic ensembles. With an onstage arsenal that includes guitars, mandolin, piano, bouzouki, electric bass and three voices, this father and sons band has a habit of sounding a lot more than a typical folk trio, putting together some of the best melodies and most intricate arrangements this side of Nickel Creek.
WATERCARVERS GUILD,EST.1973 CD(2000)
This debut CD holds some real gems of music and poetry. Tracks 5 and 6, "Home" and "Away From/Home" is actually one continuous song, and the crowning jewel of this CD. The long interplay between mandolin, guitar and bass on Track 6 and its musical resolution is imaginative and exhilarating, reminiscent of the melodic interlude in "Be Free" by Loggins and Messina. Track 8, "Butterflies", is a fun song about the "revenge of the butterflies"; while the final track, "Carve My Name" adds a haunting, melodic piano to a song whose lyrics hint at the origin of the word, watercarver.
