The Parable of the Sparrow
by gallagher/cross
Recording backup vocals on this album was the kind of experience that opened my soul up a bit wider. gallagher/cross blithely combine the sublime and the ridiculous with risk-taking and sheer talent.

Warm Electric Winter
by Rachael Cardiello
Rachael Cardiello puts more soul into one viola and one small woman's vocal chords than seems humanly possible. This album is a wonderful mix of lyrical West Coast with down and dirty New York.
