Jonathan Byrd released his first CD, Wildflowers, in late 2001. With spare production, these simple tales of love and death seemed to be a hundred years old or more. Folk legend Tom Paxton discovered Byrd's music online and wrote, "What a treat to hear someone so deeply rooted in tradition, yet growing in his own beautiful way." One of the original tunes from this album entitled "Velma" has become somewhat of a "new standard," as other touring musicians -- like Jack Lawrence and Larry Keel - play this modern-day murder ballad in their live sets.
