Being partners in life, as well as in music, Deb Talan and Steve Tannen have a great story to share. Falling in love, admiring each other’s work and forming The Weepies. The duo writes sincerely sweet, quiet and simply crafted songs. Another intimate homemade record, Hideway (2008), is the result of all the couple has experienced and absorbed so far. The Weepies deliver delightful folk songs, full of clever phrasing, loveliness and darker moments.

22-Aug-07


I Used to Try [MP3]
Hey Son [MP3]
nancy_float.jpgThe wistful folk and distinctly Northern sound of Nancy Elizabeth is a powerful reminiscence of the past. Medieval harmonies and thoughtful song-writing reveal her mystifying and bewitching Celtic spirit, while transforming into warm, pensive and softly aching ballads. Her music is moving with its emotional impact, haunting with its acoustic melodies fueled by dramatic guitars and mesmerizing Celtic harp, and above all, comforting with her soaring and sorrowful voice.
