I Never Knew
John Cadley is a talented singer-songwriter who presents this new project of his original tunes. Cadley, who sings all lead vocals, is joined by his wife Cathy Cadley on vocals, and by Clay Hess (guitar, electric guitar, mandolin, banjo, bass, vocals), Tim Crouch (fiddle), Roger Williams (resonator guitar), Dave Morrison (steel guitar), and Josh Shilling (piano).
The Cadley’s together have been performing around the New York-New England area for over ten years and have six albums in their catalog of projects. This twelve-song collection is another showcase featuring Cadley’s songs and includes such selections as “Washington Street,” “The Family Curse,” “Just A Little Rain,” “What Have You Learned,” “The End Of The Road,” and the title cut “I Never Knew.”
Cadley has a very pleasant voice and leads his songs backed by the really talented group of musicians. Two highlights are “A Love For The Ages,” about growing old together, and “John Williams,” about the last person killed in the Civil War. This is another good collection from this talented writer.
