Martha’s Trouble, for the uninitiated ‘til now like me, is a husband and wife folk duo — Rob and Jen Slocumb — who had great critical success with their first album a few years ago, did the touring thing, released more albums with some success and then devoted some years primarily to their two young children.

Lullaby Music You and Baby Will Love
May 16, 2012 by April Rueb

Jen Slocumb of the talented acoustic duo Martha’s Trouble recently emailed me about doing a giveaway of their sweet lullaby cd just in time for mother’s day. She sent me the songs, and they are precious! My favorite is “you are my sunshine” which she combines with “let the sun shine in.” I sing that...

I had the absolute pleasure of being introduced to your “A Little Heart Like You” album the other day by a friend. I picked my 3 yr old son up from daycare, all riled up as usual, and put the cd on in the car. There was absolute silence all the way home (an absolute first!), and when we arrived home, he cried and cried not to get out of the car. Once I managed to get us in the house, I...
