PhyPhyllisTannerfryellis Tannerfrye, a lowland blues singer from South Carolina.

Phyllis is South Carolina's Lowcountry Songster ... and Rag Painter. With a head full of Dylan in the early seventies, she left the Baptist church for rock and roll, left rock and roll in the mid eighties to raise her daughter ..and turned into a song magician on a mission ... her inspiration burst, and she landed on the highway in 2001 as a solo songster. ...so these 'mysterious and beautiful works of art' are rooted in gospel and sixties rock and roll.
What other folks say about Phyllis:

"Phyllis is an artist who refuses narrow categorization. Her talents as an AMERICAN singer songwriter are far too broad for that. I don't want to take this CD out of my player." -DAVID BUTLER, WQFS-FM, Greensboro, NC

"This is what songwriting should be; Phyllis is a winner." -Beth Judy, SUWANNEE SPRINGFEST, Live Oak, FL

"You will listen for the next twist of phrase in Phyllis' intricate lyrics and beautiful melodies. She has highly expressive vocal technique & an engaging stage presence." -Bill Beckett, WUFT-FM, Jacksonville, FL

"Phyllis has a powerful voice with bluesy overtones, and her songs are exquisitely crafted and emotionally compelling." -CHARLOTTE FOLK SOCIETY, Oct'02

Phyllis Tannerfrye is riveting and visionary.." - ANNIE GALLUP, Beat Poet Songwriter Artist
