Comments:

The band plays intimate, beautifully expressive folk on this record and the lead singer has a very appealing voice.
     "Comet" is a dreamy and uplifting song with a great chorus.
     "Catapult" is an up-tempo song that the band carries off well.
     This is a fine record. (stjarnell@yahoo.com)
