I love this CD. Super production - raw and edgy. Beautiful male and female harmonies playing off each other the whole way through. Rough at times, tender at others. Poignant. Fun. Funky. Favorite tracks: Home, Strangest Kind, Too Lazy to Break Your Heart, and especially the gut crunching journey through break-up - Icon. Five stars.
