Tell a promoter you would like to see Dorothy Jane Siver & The Siver Family.

.

Dorothy Jane began playing piano at age 4, violin at age 9 and guitar, mandolin & upright bass soon followed. Currently a young teenager at 13, she has written 2 originals of her own and accompanies her mother (Jennifer) on all of her original works. Dorothy Jane's musical roots grew in 2007 when she began learning Bluegrass from Jim Bevins. Her mom and dad picked up instruments and began playing along with her and soon formed The Siver Family band. Dorothy Jane has played on many stages in her short life and is starting a solo career. Her music is branching out into the Folk genre, but staying firmly planted in the acoustic Bluegrass sound. She has just finished her studio time with Ampersand Records and her debut CD will soon be released. She loves to perform, if you feel you know of a venue or you are a promoter or organizer of a venue and would like to have Dorothy Jane Siver on your schedule feel free to contact her father (Ron). This young lady will put some drive into your schedule....contact her today. Thanks to all the people who have supported her in the past and she looks forward to meeting new friends in the future.

Comments from our friends:

"I wish you the very, very best with your music future. Again, your music and your talent is really impressive. You will do very well young lady!"....... Cheryl Bergeron at www.greatbluerootsradio.net

"I'm planning a graduation party for my daughter and a neighbor boy. They and a few of their friends love bluegrass and old time country music and I want to do something special for them. I've been hunting for a band for a while on the internet and the search was over when I found you. I've read about your band and your farm enterprise which convinces me even more that you are the best I'll find. Many people here will love your music and we'll all have a real good time. I'm going to try to get to one or more of your events this summer. I look forward to hearing from you"........ Gerry

"I was at The Parting Glass today to see Dorothy Jane play and was I ever impressed. What a well focused young lady. Her music was very impressive and her voice is that of an angel. Keep up the good work Dorothy! You are headed for all that you strive for in life. You are already very successful. You have a wonderful family and your entire group was very impressive and enjoyable! I only wish you could have played much, much longer.
Good luck to you and thank you for signing my CD"........Sharon

'There is NO other group who would have been more suitable for our event than the Sivers. Our guests were very complimentary of the band with many saying "How did you ever locate the band, they are just wonderful!" As they were here for longer than the actual performance, we got to know them and have found some new friends. We are planning to travel to see them at another performance in about three weeks. I would be pleased to speak to anyone who may be thinking of hiring them." Gerry Loucks -- Gerry L, East Jewett, NY, 7/17/2010
