Wendy Waldman and Kenny Edwards are both in the band Bryndle with their friends Karla Bonoff and Andrew Gold. Bryndle first formed in the late 1960s in Los Angeles. A 1970 album for A&M Records was recorded but never released and Bryndle soon disbanded... for more than 20 years! They have since released 3 CDs including Live at Russ & Julie's in 2003.

Wendy Waldman went from Bryndle to a career as a solo artist and respected songwriter and producer. She has made seven critically acclaimed albums and toured extensively as well. In 1996, a "best of" collection was released on Warner Brothers. More than 70 other artists have recorded her songs in fields as diverse as pop, r&b, jazz, country, Latin and cowboy music. Among her biggest records are "Save The Best For Last" and "The Sweetest Days" by Vanessa Williams; "Fishin' In The Dark" and "Home Again In My Heart" by the Dirt Band; "Baby What About You" by Crystal Gayle; "I Owe You One" by Aaron Neville; and "Heartbeat" by Don Johnson. Her songs have also ben recorded by Maria Muldaur, Kim Carnes, Randy Travis, Randy Meisner, Edgar Winter, Jesse Colin Young, Percy Sledge, Juice Newton, Linda Ronstadt, Judy Collins, Melissa Manchester, Rita Coolidge and Bette Midler to name just a few. Waldman became the first woman to produce country music extensively and was responsible for Susy Bogguss' award-winning debut album, as well as albums for the Forester Sisters, Jonathan Edwards, Matraca Berg and the Ozark Mountain Daredevils.

Before Bryndle, Kenny Edwards had been a founding member of the Stone Poneys with Linda Ronstadt. After Bryndle, he returned to work with Linda Ronstadt on her ground-breaking album, Heart Like A Wheel. He subsequently spent many years with her as a sideman, singer, arranger and touring band member. Edwards also became a noted producer and was responsible for masterminding Karla Bonoff's hit albums. He has worked with such other acts as Stevie Nicks, J.D. Souther and Don Henley, Brian Wilson, Warren Zevon, Art Garfunkel, Vince Gill, Mac McAnally, David Lee Murphy, Jennifer Warnes, Danny Kortchmar, and Lowell George. Kenny released his first, self-titled album in 2002. It's a warm and intimate listening experience that we highly recommend.

Katy Moffatt has never quite broken through to the country mainstream, but she has earned a substantial cult following among roots-music fans and plenty of critical respect for her blend of country, folk, rock, pop, and blues. Her first breakthrough was an appearance in the 1971 film Billy Jack. A record deal with Columbia in 1975, resulted in two country-rock albums for the label: 1976's Katy and 1978's Kissin' in the California Sun, the latter of which featured members of the Allman Brothers. She has since been a backup singer, working with the likes of Willie Nelson, Jimmy Buffett, Poco, John Prine, Tanya Tucker, and Lynn Anderson, landed a nomination as the Academy of Country Music's Female Vocalist of the Year in 1985, and released 13 solo albums. A 14th album, produced by Wendy Waldman, will be released later this year.
