Bio / Background
The Muses are an a cappella group formed in 2001 and based in Asheville, North Carolina. They sing an entertaining and soulful mix of World Beat/Americana music. Their diverse song repertoire covers a wide range, from American spirituals to music of the 40s to songs from around the world.
The group's members are as eclectic as their songs. Gail Forsyth is from Scotland and brings to the group not only her lovely voice but also a wonderful expertise from her native homeland. Erin Doyle, an Ohioan, sang in school choirs from elementary school through college, and sang with such diverse artists as Sesame Street's Big Bird and the renowned orchestral director Loren Mazel. Jennifer Lane, a New York native, has sung for audiences since age 5 and, showcasing her rich alto voice, often accompanies herself with her guitar. Natalie Grinnell, a true songbird, is originally from Durham, North Carolina.

Judy Rhodes was born into a family that has lived in Western North Carolina for seven generations, and for whom music is a family tradition.
