Nice new song just out from brother and sister duo Mike & Marty. “Go Rest High On That Mountain” is a song by country artist Vince Gill. This song gives me similar vibes to the duo’s first studio song on YouTube, “Sing Me Back Home“. It’s a country tune with Christian themes, as you’ll see in the lyrics below. Mike sings lead on this one;…
We’ve got another new tune from Mike & Marty, this one a Dolly Parton classic – “Coat of Many Colors”. Not having any other paper at hand, Parton famously wrote the lyrics to this song down on a dry cleaning receipt while on tour in 1969. This is a favorite song of many.

A nice new song was recently released by brother and sister duo Mike and Marty Fisher. First a note on their name. We’ve known them til now as Third Fret Harmony – a group which also once included their sister Rose, of Ben & Rose.

This time it’s a more contemporary choice – “In The Palm Of Your Hand”. This one was written by Ron Block and first recorded in the 1990s by Allison Krauss and the Cox Family. If you…
We’ve got the second studio song from Third Fret Harmony, which consists of Rose’s brother and sister, Mike and Marty. We first saw and heard them here last month performing the classic country song “Sing Me Back Home”. In this tune they are back “singing about singing” again – but this time more in the gospel music vein. “Sing Me A Song About Jesus” is…
Third Fret Harmony is another Amish music group that (at least) Rose of Ben & Rose has been a part of (and I think still is – though I am not sure). Like Ben & Rose, they are also working with producer Conrad Fisher, and I think you’ll recognize some of that flavor in this song. In this video, which I believe is their first…
