Catherine Miles, Karyn Oliver, and Carolann Solebello are three of the New York folk scene's favorite female singer-songwriters - Catherine as a member of the Ya Yas (with her husband Jay Mafale), Karyn as a recent arrival from Baltimore, and Carolann as a member of Red Molly.

As regulars in the sisterhood/support group known as Chicks With Dip, they all contributed to Joni Mitchell's Blue: A 40th Anniversary Tribute Album and found themselves collaborating in live performances. Their musical and personal chemistry led to their forming a group they called No Fuss and Feathers.

Aided and abetted by Mafale as guitarist and producer, they recorded an album, Traveling Circus, which showcases their songs and harmonies. Those harmonies and good spirits are on display in this Sunday Supper session.
