The Watson Twins know how to set a mood, whether they’re shaping the country-soul of
Jenny Lewis' Rabbit Fur Coat or the Southern slow-burn of their own material. Released four years after their breakthrough performance with
Lewis, this sophomore album finds the sisters turning to
Carole King’s solo material, and the darker, twangier side of the Laurel Canyon scene for inspiration. Members of
My Morning Jacket and
Everest make cameo appearances in the girls' backup band, and songs like “Give Me a Chance,” "Midnight," and “Harpeth River” mix the
Watsons' vocal power with atmospheric, country-tinged arrangements. ~ Andrew Leahey
