"Bachue are Corrina Hewat and David Milligan. She plays the harp and sings, he plays piano and guitar. They are both masters on their respective instruments, Corrina with her unbelievable agility and tone and David with his jazz-inflected groove and technical prowess! I can't believe these two are not better known - it will just be a matter of time, I am sure. The songs are tinged with sadness (If I were a blackbird, Ballad of the sad young men, Lovin' Hannah) but her vocals are a cross between Rickie Lee Jones, Billie Holliday and Diane Krall. The sound is amazing and well worth a listen. They both write fantastic tunes as well as play some cracking traditional material - I never thought harp and piano could sound so good, and have such strength in sound. This is their second album - the first being 'Bachue Cafe' released on the Highlander label (HRMCD001 ) and is also a triumph which, having been released in 1996 , is still one of my favourite albums. Five stars for it, and for 'a certain smile' and I can't wait for the next one!"
