Cindy Bullens, Deborah Holland, and Wendy Waldman are THE REFUGEES, a new band of critically- acclaimed singer / songwriters performing their award-winning songs in glorious three-part harmony with high energy, humor, and stellar musicianship. The Refugees represent an incredible convergence of talent. Each performs their individual songs accompanied by the other two on guitars, bass, melodica, keyboards, percussion, mandolin, and harmonica, culminating in the creation of new renditions of their exceptional work. They have been described as a female version of Crosby, Stills and Nash with humor.

Her songs have been recorded by the Dixie Chicks, Radney Foster, The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, Irma Thomas and more. DEBORAH HOLLAND : Deborah Holland's tremendous singing and songwriting talents were first introduced via trio Animal Logic (with ex-Police drummer Stewart Copeland and jazz great Stanley Clarke)…. successful career as a solo artist releasing 4 CDs….“a lyrical ironist to match Warren Zevon.” (Sing Out! magazine)… “as a wordsmith, Deborah Holland concerns herself with the balance between heart and mind. As an artist, she makes the balance seem effortless” (Dirty Linen: Folk and World Music)… Deborah scores music and writes songs for film and television, is a full-time professor of music at California State University at Los Angeles, and is a mother of 2 boys. WENDY WALDMAN : a distinguished career as an artist (solo on major labels and cult fave Bryndle), one of the first woman record producers to have a major impact, and songwriter of multi-platinum songs in genres from country to pop, film, jazz, children's music and R&B… songwriting and producing credits includes the Grammy-winning “Save the Best for Last,” (recorded by Vanessa Williams)… eight critically acclaimed solo albums and toured extensively.
