When O’Leary launched his own band in 2008 and invited her to join, she jumped at the chance. Of McCarthy, O'Leary has said, "she's my favorite person in the world to sing with."

Americana, Bluegrass | RIVER SPIRIT MUSIC
Hastings-on-Hudson, NY See Map |
 “Fans of Dixie Chicks, Alison Krauss and Dolly Parton, take notice: Nora Jane Struthers embodies everything you could want in an Americana singer-songwriter.” - NPR Music
Virginia-born Struthers was educated at NYU’s Steinhart School of Education and taught at a charter school in Brooklyn, while cutting her musical teeth as a folk-rock performer in New York clubs like CBGBs and the Cutting Room. She decided to move into music full-time after attending such convocations as Virginia’s Galax Old Time Fiddlers Convention and North Carolina’s Mount Airy Fiddlers Convention with her father. Nora Jane Struthers & The Party Line have performed at the Grey Fox Bluegrass Festival and Bristol Rhythm & Roots Reunion.
The instrumentation and form of Struthers’ music draws on her traditionalist roots – her father is himself a bluegrass musician – but with the addition of drums, her latest album takes a bend toward more progressive roots-rock bands like Mumford & Sons and The Avett Brothers.

 When Anne & JT first performed together, there was an immediate chemistry between them. They've been collaborating ever since. Their sound is cool and contemporary; their harmonies extraordinary.
With a repertoire that recreates the fresh, folksy, foot-stomping style of singer/songwriters like Johnnyswim, Marcus Mumford, Newton Faulkner, Civil Wars and Local Natives, Anne & JT have developed a sound that's completely their own. And it's truly something special.
Anne is a frequent performer at our Open Mics, was a featured singer at our 1,000th performance and is active in her Church Choir, where she recently performed a classic hymn by Mendelssohn. JT is a graduate of the prestigious School of Music at Ithaca College (Sound Recording & Technology).

 The Righteous Brothers’ raw emotional R&B sound not only created the genre “Blue-Eyed Soul”, but the very term was coined specifically for them. Combining the density of Phil Spector’s “Wall of Sound” production with Bill Medley’s deep, rich, powerful baritone created a totally original sound that still resonates today. BMI ranked You’ve Lost That Lovin’ Feelin’ as having had more television and radio airplay than any other song in history!
In 2003, The Righteous Brothers were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame with Three #1, Seven Top 10 & Thirteen Billboard Top 40 Hits including:
Hit songs include: You’ve Lost That Lovin’ Feelin’ (three time chart topper), (I’ve had)
