    A sweetly-rendered set of originals. Sometimes, though, even if it drips with Nashville authenticity, it's all a bit too sugary. [May 2016, p.90]

    Ultimately, it takes a real curmudgeon to dislike this often enchanting, rosy-cheeked, harmony laden alliance, even if you wish it was better. It also does little to display the vocal talents of Kelly Jones who has a handful of terrific albums under her own name but whose own style gets lost here.

Neither appears to ostentatiously seek to usurp the other, one coming to the fore, then letting the other, their singular strengths shining when at zenith. When they sing in unison, combining their energies and talents into the most remarkable of duets, two voices as two voices as one, if that makes any sense, they produce a series of stunning musical realizations on this lovely and singularly sweet album. The songs are uniformly strong and concise, if I may use the word: not a clunker among them. This is a either a most auspicious beginning of a triumphant duo, or one of the loveliest moments in folk music. Brilliant!… Full Review »
