The album is their fourth release following: Other People's Heaven (1997) and Geronimo (1999), and a live album, Great Lakes Bootleg (2000).

Like Melissa Etheridge or Bonnie Raitt, this woman has got a voice and delivery that you know upon hearing, no matter what the words, is communicating from a profound place language can't begin to touch.

This is a fantastic CD!!!!
author: Rinda
The music is varied enough to keep your attention throughout the entire CD. The lyrics great. Kate Fenner's voice is so intriguing, I bought other CDs from them. And the third song, Never Done... I have to hit repeat every single time. Wonderful!! So good, in fact, I came back to buy extra copies for my sisters for Christmas.

Never Done is one of the most beautiful songs I've heard in a long, long time. The variety of genres covered, successfully, is nothing short of amazing. Easily one of my favorite albums that I discovered this year.
