>From his home is Baltimore, MD, Winston Grennan said:
"Although EMRYS just started out, it's a very strong band. Their music is
very sweet to listen to - they don't complicate it with a lot of
distraction and noise which, unfortunately, is fairly common with new
rock'n'roll bands. I listened many times to their new CD "Civic Studies;"
it's very clean, well-recorded.
I'm looking forward to hearing EMRYS play live. I usually don't sit in
with other groups, but these guys play their instruments well, they're
serious musicians, so I decided to come down to Chapel Hill and jam with
them. I really think this band will be going places..."
