JANUARY 26, 2015: ANNOUNCEMENT: Following an incredible thirteen year stint of solid touring, The Greencards are announcing a twelve month hiatus. In August 2014 we released our sixth album, ‘Sweetheart of the Sun’, and were honored with our third GRAMMY nomination, but now it just feels like the right time to climb out of the van for a while.
Although we’re going to miss seeing you all, especially the folks who traveled to see us at multiple shows each year, but we feel very good about the decision to take a year off to write and record some new music, and possibly take in a few yoga classes and home cooked meals. But that doesn’t mean you won’t hear from us throughout that time - we’re already using our time wisely. We are so excited to announce that Kym Warner is recording his debut solo album, scheduled to be released in April, 2015!

"The band takes a back seat to the songs themselves and they're gorgeous, insinuating things; this music soothes and comforts, then it provides sustenance."
- AllMusic
"Laid back tunes that land in a sweet spot halfway between Americana and bluegrass."
-TIME MAGAZINE
" The Greencards are better than ever. The Greencards have elevated Americana with great vocals, great playing and songs that are strictly theirs."
- AMERICAN SONGWRITER (4.5 stars)
"Their sound defies category, balancing taste and technique with engaging lyrics and melodies and wildly creative arrangements..."
