To Whom It May Concern:
The Teton County Fair was lucky enough to have The Linfords entertain at our fair this year. What a delight they were!
Cal and Teddy were very easy to work with. They were always punctual and performed their act without asking for any extras. I received many great comments about their show and talents.
I heartily recommend The Linfords to any venue looking for quality family entertainment. Please feel free to call me with any questions.

Cal and Teddy are a wonderful combination. Their talent and warmth makes you feel their music in your heart. Their lyrics and songwriting have unmistakable feelings portrayed that make you really "listen" to what they are singing. Our fair audience commented on how beautiful they were to listen to. We all enjoyed spending the afternoon listening to good music, visiting with friends, and eating a fair burger! We will be pleased to have them come again and again as long as they want to! Thanks Cal and Teddy!

Hey Teddy and Cal,
I am just sitting down listing to your album. I love it. Great writing, harmonies and classic simplicity. This will be on my play list for sure. It was great hanging out with the two of you this week. That last night jam was top notch. See you on the road.

Bio
The Linfords are the living embodiment of an age old tradition of the musical family. When Cal and Teddy sing together you will hear more than just well honed voices and great songs. With a sound developed from a lifetime of singing harmony and playing in the family band, what you hear is more than just the product of hard work, it is born in them. Cal and Teddy follow their instincts with song and music choices which have helped them build a stellar set list that puts a unique spin on classic country, folk and rock songs that everyone can relate to. They have matched their unmistakable sound with original songwriting that tells the story of a life lived in the mountains of Star Valley Wyoming, where if they werent out working on the ranch, they were singing. Theirs is a true story of Americana. Their authenticity is palpable. Yes, they are unbelievably talented musicians but first and foremost they are family, and you become a part of that family when you experience The Linfords music.
Cal and Teddy can be booked as a singer/songwriter duo, or as part of a four piece band for dances and larger venues.
