In Their Words: “When Tom and I wrote ‘Since You,’ we had a goal of creating a happy bluegrass love song with a harmony chorus. We also wanted to create a song that other bluegrass and country artists might want to sing. We liked the idea of alternating verses so we could both be lead singer. It’s one of many bluegrass songs we wrote — a little generic in order to make it easily sung by anyone. Good energy, good vibe, happy tempo, trio harmonies, and rockin’ bluegrass band. We were writing a song a week together and every few weeks we’d focus on a love song or a bluegrass song, and this one nailed both! And as we thought of both the album and performances, this song fits nearly anywhere.” — Cathy Fink
