Melbourne alt-country and folk duo The Weeping Willows recorded this, their second album, in Los Angeles and though that city isn’t renowned for its roots scene as much as say, Nashville, they’ve captured an impressive, lived-in, warm and lush sound. 
Their authenticity and craft as singers, as songwriters and in Andrew Wrigglesworth's sublime guitar playing makes this a hypnotic and alluring album. They've taken a detour down some darker and moodier paths this time and it works exceedingly well. Dark folk, blues and country musings on nature, death and doomed romance suit them well and puts Wrigglesworth and Laura Coates right up there with the finest Americana music you'll hear this year.
