nce upon a time, in Austin, Texas -- the city which gave rise to various musical outlaws and gonzo cowboys and where strange happenings are a daily occurrence -- an unlikely meeting took place.

Princess, a striking pop singer from Detroit, met The Cowboy, a lanky singer-songwriter from Beeville, Texas. The result of their unusual blending of styles is Princess and the Cowboy, a folk-country act that delivers "knock your socks off" performances to audiences from Austin to Arizona and California and back.

Princess is Barbara Taft. “Her singing easily competes with Tish Hinojosa’s. When the songs are channeled through [her] voice, they receive magical treatment.” – Austin Chronicle.

The Cowboy is Abraham Davidson whose songwriting has won praise from both the Chronicle and Music City Texas. The duo's appeal is based not only on the strength of Barbara's haunting, crystal voice, nor the simple poetry of Abraham's original songs, but is found as well in the impeccable soulful harmonies blending the two together.
