I'm not much of a 'reviewer,' but I wanted to take a moment to put in a plug for this great album. I met Shaun & Abigail after live performance recently in Dayton, Ohio. I was a lucky recipient of a pre-released version of this album & let me tell you it is mesmerizing! So original! I am looking forward to their return to Dayton--as I hope to take in another of their live performances.
