This is an amazing album: great music, great vocals, great songwriting and great musical arrangements with violin, cello and even bagpipe adding something special to the electric guitar and keyboards of Grant M. Olsen, to the rhythms of the guest drummers and bassists.
ReplyDeleteThe songs are deep and heartfelt. Dyan Ondrovchik's voice is somewhat reminiscent of Emmylou Harris in tone, but this album is not country music but rock music with progressive leanings instead.
It's only available as mp3s and at shows they have it as CD-Rs, too.
I wrote them an email because I wanted the CD-R despite living nowhere near where they would play and ordered it via mailorder from the adress on the band website. So if you want to listen to this music in lossless sound, I'd recommend you do the same.
It's one of the best albums of 2011 (and I don't say something like that as easily as some advertising people would). Highly recommended! Thanks to the Jim Keltner Discography Website (right here that is) for letting me discover this album.
