The War Years – What Was Mama Doin’?

The Lemmon Sisters performed WWII – What Was Mama Doin’? in Canadian theatres in the fall of 2005.

The live CD: The Lemmon Sisters – Remembering the Women of WWII is now available. Contact us at ordercd@lemmonsisters.com to purchase your copy.

The project brings together the best-loved music of the WWII era and the life experience of amazing Canadian women – in their own voice and words. The photograph above features (left to right): Pat (Holden) Collins, Irene (Lockwood) Ogilvie and Helen Baker.
