2013 release, an album of beautifully crafted acoustic covers. Closer to Earth is the first by the duo, who met quite by chance. "The creative potential when you find this kind of chemistry is truly open ended" enthuses Murray (vocals, rhythm guitar, percussion & production), "there are so many combinations of instruments and voicing's we can call on, both in the studio and on stage - there are no limits."Murray's three octave voice is absolutely breathtaking and appears utterly effortless. Although a talented songwriter, interpreting other writers' songs is very much in Murray's DNA and his dynamic, soulful vocal approach on this album unites an unlikely array of classic tunes from many different genres in a deeply evocative way. In combination with Dave's beautiful guitar work the sound is both spellbinding and unique. A gifted and complete musician in every genre of music, Dave can also turn his hand to keyboards, bass and drums, and is an extremely talented songwriter to boot. All of these skills he infuses with his own unique blend of elegance, grace, and raw passion.
