A cross between Irish, Cajun, Roots, and even some Caribbean sounds, The Sweet Colleens don't miss a beat. Collectively, the five members bring together many years of studio and live performance experience in genres covering a diverse spectrum.

They're regulars at many Twin Cities pubs and came into the Morning Show studio to play some tunes from their latest CD, "Half a Mile From Home."

Songs performed: "Come By," "Lost On Me," "Sweet Colleen," and "Dry Bones Dance."
