Welcome to our world.

"Are you calling me

an heirloom tomato?"

-- Syd Straw, Xmas 2009

Syd and Julie have been around. It's time they started singing together. You know you want it. The idea for this duo started during a discussion about "legacy artists" (in the words of one of Syd's publicists...) and the fact that another artist friend of a certain vintage was let go by his booking agency because they were letting go of every artist over the age of reason. The quote below was Syd's response to her publicist. The next day, Julie booked the domain name. But good things take time. There are a couple other people interested in this idea and willing to book us if we get this show on the road. So show us the love. Let us know you want to hear us chirp together. Contact us for your next house concert or shindig. We'll show you a good time. Well not TOO good. Sad songs make us happy.
