In 1974, together with mandolinist/vocalist Carol Siegel, fiddler/vocalist Sue Raines, and bassist/vocalist Nancy Josephson, these women founded Buffalo Gals on the campus of Syracuse University in New York. The history of the band is detailed in the wonderful book Pretty Good for a Girl: Women in Bluegrass, which is also an invaluable resource for learning more about this often unreported history.
According to author Murphy Hicks Henry in Pretty Good for a Girl, the Gals had been playing together since 1972, which makes them the first all-female bluegrass band, beating out the Bay Area’s Good Ol’ Persons by a few years.
Martha Trachtenberg on the album:
We were approached by Paul Gerry, the owner of Revonah Records, and we were mighty excited to be making an actual record. Revonah — which is Hanover spelled backward, for reasons yet unknown to me — was located in Ferndale, New York. It was a two-track studio, which meant that everything was recorded live, as a group — no overdubs, no editing. If one of us made a mistake, we had to play the whole song over again. And over again. He gave us two days to record thirteen songs. …
