Teri Ann McLean showcases her multiple talents on her album “Echoes of Goodbye” with fancy vocals that reign true throughout this album. Old favorites such as “Angel Band” make this record something truly special to all listeners. A standout song on this album is “Arms of Another,” which features raw emotion and is a typical bluegrass heartbreak number. Another standout track on this album is “Is the Blue Moon Still Shining” which just about anyone can relate to and can sing along with. This song features beautiful harmony vocals from Jen Larsen. McLean wrote 8 of the 12 tracks on this album and has a way with words in songwriting that is something to be reckoned with. She portrays every song as a story and each tells something that listeners know she was feeling or deeply pondering at the time. Some special guests appear on this album including Andy Falco, Andy Hall and Jim Van Cleve showcasing their own special talents. Any bluegrass listener would be proud to own a copy of this album and would hope for a new release immediately after listening to this album. Teri Ann McLean will soon be a household name in the bluegrass world and the world will see her many talents as a songwriter, singer and a special person to anyone who knows her.

Teri Ann McLean is a bluegrass musician and songwriter who has created an alluring set of tunes that blend originality with numbers such as "It Takes One To Know One" and "Angel Band." Eight of the dozen performances were penned by Teri Ann including "Splintered Pieces," "Toe on the Line," and "Echoes of Goodbye." Teri Ann is assisted by a host of top pickers including fiddler Jim Van Cleve, Ashby Frank (mandolin), and Ernie Sykes (bass and harmony vocals) among others. "Echoes of Goodbye" is not only a fine recording, but it also establishes Teri Ann McLean as a prolific writer whose works could quickly find their way into other artists repertoires.
