Asta delivers the songs convincingly . . . I don't like the first two tunes . . . I do like the rest of the album. Bohemian folk band kind of thing, reminiscent for me of all those folk bands who played in Fells Pointe back in Baltimore, Maryland in the mid-'80s. It's beauty grows on you and its complexity sneaks up on you .
Gift is a thoughtful mix of metaphor and plaintiveness.
3rd CD Gift Release Party. The band wore mostly black. From the get-go the sound was full and played tight. The crowd responded with cheers, anticipating a splendid night ahead. These first three tunes all seemed to lament lost love with musically quiet and reflective parts followed by joyful up-tempo choruses lending to the irreverence of the lyric.
