The Great Interference

is composed of seven members of the Ramsey family. The Ramseys moved from the suburbs of Dallas, TX to tiny Winnsboro, TX in 1997. The building of their three story farmhouse commenced and they set up house in a two room pole barn nearby, beginning the greatest adventure of their lives.

It was during the two and a half years spent beneath that tin roof that Samuel and Emma started writing songs together. Samuel took up his Dad's guitar and Emma scribbled her thoughts on any piece of paper she could find. They moved into the new house in January of 1999 and the journey into music continued. They kept writing songs. James built himself a drum-set with K'nex, tupperware, and a practice pad and hi-hat. Johanna began to sing.

Then Sam came into a guitar of his own. James got a real drum-set. They began to share their songs with the world around them. They had their first concert at a tiny Methodist Church. Over the next eight years Samuel started playing the piano and group added bass and electric guitars to the mix. Grace and Sarah Anne took piano and violin lessons. James picked up the cello. Johanna learned the bass guitar.

In 2007, their first CD, recorded at home, was finally released.

And the so music goes on... interfering with the atmosphere.
