A Note from Paul & Win:

When we went into The Land Recording Studio in 1984 to record our very first album, A Place In The Choir, our music career was in its infant stage.  You can almost hear our nervous excitement as we play everything at break-neck speed.  (We’re in the studio, multi-tracking like the pros, making a cassette tape for all the world to hear!!) In 1986, we quit our day jobs, and become full-time touring professional folk musicians. A year later, we went back into the studio to make a record, Fifty Miles of Elbow Room, and felt like we were really hitting the big time. (We’re making a record!!)  

Our daughters Leela and Ellie were always along at our performances and were often along in the recording studio, observing, learning, singing, dancing, assisting, and eventually, stealing our material.  It seemed a natural progression that they would join the band as we became Paul & Win Grace and Family.  You can hear the beginnings of the Grace Family band sound on our 1990 album, Carved Out of Time. 

In 2005, we find that what we said on our 1987 LP still applies:  Our love and thanks to all of the wonderful people who have listened to us, hosted us for concerts and dances, jammed with us, put us up, put up with us, and who have been true friends in many wonderful ways.  Thanks for listening!
