New York Times - Performer's Blurb
To the Editor: I am a performer, not a critic, but because I had a following in Dallas, the promoters
of the show there asked me to contribute a quote to help sell tickets for the singing-songwriting trio
the Burns Sisters. I love the Burns Sisters: they are beautiful, have that harmony thing that only family
members have, and happen to have big heads of gorgeous hair. So this is the quote I gave them: "The Burns
Sisters: great voices, great songs, great hair. I hate them!" I don't know who made the mistake, but the
newspaper ads and posters carried this quote instead: "The Burns Sisters: I Hate them!" - Christine Lavin.
Fortunately the mistake drew more attention than the original ad would have, and they sold out. Whew!

"...the powers-that-be in Nashville... should investigate this disc for possible covers"
All Music Guide
"Marie, Annie and Jeannie Burns continue their blend of sweet vocals, countrified pop-rock, and
diary-inspired tales of longing, love, loss, regret and affirmation."
Syracuse New Times
"If I could split myself in three I would be the Burns Sisters."
Janis Ian
