5.0 out of 5 stars
Album Of The Year,
By Daniel G. Moir (Eden Prairie, MN USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Hideaway (Audio CD)
What really gets me here is the inventive writing. Deb & Steve have once again managed to write melodies that are familiar yet totally unexpected. While their solo albums are really good, they hit their peak as a duo. This album, like their last one, is some of the most intelligent music that you can run in to. I consider myself very lucky for having "accidentally" heard one of the Weepies songs on Minneapolis' "The Current" a couple of years ago and just fell in love with what they do. KEEP THE MUSIC COMING. Cheers!

Right Time, Right Music,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Hideaway (Audio CD)
Sometimes the right music comes along at just the right time. Such is the case with The Weepies' Hideaway. In a different moment I could have easily dismissed this as another heart-on-sleeve, folk-rock-lite duo singing weepy (sorry) little tunes. But something pulled me in - the timbre of the voices, the creative harmonies, the understated rhythm section, the songwriting. All that, and the sweetness - in the best sense of the word. The pleasure and confidence in these two singers singing together is palpable. And not an obligatory instrumental solo in sight!
Suffice it to say, this music is a blessed relief from all the pounding. Thank you, Steve & Deb.

A great album,
By Conor Allen (Ohio United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Hideaway (MP3 Download)
My wife and I are both huge fans of the Weepies. We saw them in concert and met them (very briefly) afterwards. They are very cool people.
So we'd been anticipating this album for a while. This review doesn't need to be long; if you know The Weepies music, this is more of the same, and that's a good thing. The only thing I'd add is that this album is a bit more subdued than their past work. There aren't as many upbeat songs and the music feels less "happy," which surprises me since they've had a new baby, and some professional success lately. Still, it's awesome music. I listened to it four times throughout the first day I had it and I can tell I'll be listening to it for a while.
