"I've long been a fan of the Everybodyfields and when they broke up a couple years ago was disappointed. Now Sam Quinn (the male lead of the Everybodyfields) has this new record.
My favorites are Mardi Gras, Gun, and So Strong, but there is not a track that I skip. They are all written in the typical Sam Quinn fashion, achingly longing for something not quite within his grasp, but with a spirit that we know he will reach his goal eventually. Sam has always been my go to guy on The Everybodyfields records for his unusual voice, it's hard to pin down, kind of creaky and old timey, but so soulful, just about perfect to these ears.
Also he's brought along a musician from the old group, Josh Oliver on keyboards and guitar, who just adds so much. There's also killer pedal steel throughout. This CD is depressingly magical, can't recommend it more."
