http://sweetceciliagirls.com —
Sweet Cecilia are an incredibly talented 3 piece musical group from Cecilia Louisiana known for their live shows featuring songs written and chosen to highlight vocal harmony in 3 part… They are Laura Huval, Maegan Berard and Callie Guidry. Each are remarkable in their own individual singing voices as well as harmony, and they display this wondrously while all members are featured during their performances… Not only do these women write songs separately and together, each member of this group posses just as much talent musically as they do vocally. Steeped in a wide blend of musical influences such as rock and roll, country, cajun and french music as well as gospel and pop, when you hear all of this come together with seemingly effortless harmonies rising up from within, these gals will absolutely astound you no matter what the tune. — “Cry to Me” is a song written by Bert Russell a/k/a Bert Berns, first recorded under the production of Bert Berns by Solomon Burke, who released the song in 1962. Other versions of the song were later recorded by the Rolling Stones, The Pretty Things, Betty Harris and Loleatta Holloway among others.
