These two musical couples have been performing together in the Bay Area nearly every year since 2001, when Newlon and Martin reconnected through the magic of the Yahoo! search engine, after more than twenty years. The two met in Aspen in the late 1970s when folk and country rock were exploding in the mountains of Colorado.
Fast forward all those twenty years – which brought ten top ten hit songs for Martin and his own reconnection and marriage to Jan Garrett (long-time diva of the Colorado Rockies music scene), through Newlon’s rediscovery of his musical passion and his marriage to Bev Barnett. The synergy between these two musical couples sizzles with the immediacy of the moment and sustains with the grace of the years.
