As live performers they are second to none. Their stirring concerts have earned them a huge body of fans over the years. But as gifted songwriters Robin and Linda have earned an even rarer honor, the devotion and deep respect of their musical peers. As The Washington Post put it, “The Williamses are able to sum up a life in a few details with moving completeness.” The list of artists who have covered their original songs include some of the greats of country music, names like Emmy Lou Harris, Tom T.Hall, George Hamilton IV, Tim & Mollie O’Brien, Mary Chapin Carpenter, Kathy Mattea and The Seldom Scene. One of their most requested songs, “Don’t Let Me Come a Stranger,” has been recorded by the well known Irish singer, Mary Black.

2021 _ Robin and Linda took “the gift of time” for their first self produced CD, “A Better Day A-Coming.” It was recorded in three sessions, from August 2019 to August 2020 in their living room with their good friend Kevin McNoldy assisting as co-producer and engineer. Bassist Mark Schatz and multi-instrumentalist David McLaughlin came by for the second session. Then they sent digital files to their friends Richie Dworsky, Kevin Maul, and Patrick McAvinue to add their parts. During the final session Robin and Linda recorded one last song and began mixing the CD. There are eight original songs, three by other songwriters and two from the public domain that Robin and Linda made their own by developing personal and unique versions. This experience resulted in a CD with good pitch and good time along with good energy and solid dynamics.
