Some nice things said about MWT by folks whose taste we can't help but admire:
"You guys are wonderful! I'm totally captivated by Judy's voice. In fact you gave me goosebumps. I'm struck by the energy and intelligence in your material. And can't help but wonder why everyone across the country has not heard of the McKinney Washtub Two." Zeke Sinclair Browning Shamas & Barry Award nominated Author
I'm impressed with your music, and so are some of my listeners! Per your permission, I'll play a tune or two from them on the weekly Shady Grove Web Radio shows. Did you hear the two songs I lifted from you Web site? They're gems!" Ken Laing Shady Grove Web Radio Host
This is no ordinary band...this duo does songs known to all of us...with a twist. The show included a lot of audience participation on many songs & lots of laughs. At one point I was laughing so hard I was crying!! If you ever get the chance to see this duo-I highly recommend it. Deb Chambers Calvin College Grand Rapids, MI
"Ghost Chickens' was inspired!" Dennis Kingsbury Performer and Co-host of "Live from the Living Room at the Blue Note" Pontiac, Michigan
"Listening to your repertoire was a delight." Al Grund--author/poet/performer Host of Grass Lake Folk Festival
"You guys act out the song so well, it's like being inside the song!" Basil DeFore Board of Directors Open Mic Prod. Inc.
"I just logged onto your web site and had a great time! What a blast!" Jean Jones The Sault Ste. Marie Summer Arts Festival
"I can't tell you how much I've enjoyed your CD. It is so much fun...I have added it to my folk/bluegrass mp3 rotation, which gets me through many a dull Monday morning. This is great stuff you've got here. I'd love to hear more." Josh Way Website designer, Nyack College, N.Y.
"Our guest artists, The McKinney Washtub Two (Judy and Whitt McKinney) are a polished act, and great fun...They put in a very fine performance, and I hope they will be able to return. Lynn Hefferan The Fabulous Heftones
"I had my doubts as to whether or not it'd be to my tastes, but it's really great!...I wasn't expecting such a humorous approach to the whole thing. Whitt's intro's are bloody hilarious (yours are too!) It's classic stuff! Thanks again! John Nolan University student-Ireland
"The McKinneys are delightful, utilizing humor and sound musicianship to completely entertain their fans." "Thanks to the fabulous McKinney Washtub Two for their hilarious musical parodies and renditions. I don't know when I've had such a good time! You should have heard the one about the Ghost Chickens! Aaawkkk" Maggie Ferguson Host of "The Old Front Porch" Radio show WXOU, Performer and Co-host of "Live from the Living Room at the Blue Note" Acoustic Showcase Pontiac, Michigan.
