Press Reviews “Haunting, gentle, passionate. Each piece is my favorite, until the next one begins. The voice is iridescent, liquid. Somehow, it renews itself between sessions. It is a rare privilege to hear such quality today.” - Audrey DeLaMartre, The Minnesota Phoenix. - “All the warmth and immediacy of a lullaby, but it's music for “awakening,˜ in every sense of the word. This soundtrack to the evolution of a soul is that rare adult contemporary album that begs for more volume, not less.” - David A. Young, The Seattle New Times. - “Transcendentally gorgeous singing , lovely yet compelling melodies; Bradfield and Anael eloquently speak the language of our heartsand souls with deep insight and soaring joy.” - Steve Ryals, New Age Retailer
