Synopsis

Product Description

Identical twins Chandra and Leigh Watson, veterans of the contemporary folk rock scene in Los Angeles will release "Fire Songs", their label debut full length. The twins are akin to various scenes such as indie rock, new folk, alt-country/Americana and cannot be neatly categorized into one. The Kentucky-born duo count folk, gospel, blues and country as early influences. The album was produced by Russell Pollard and J. Soda (members from various incarnations of Sebadoh, Earlimart, Everest, and Folk Implosion) and is the follow up to the Watson Twins 2006 self-released and critically acclaimed "Southern Manners" EP.

CD Reviews

Another beautiful album!

db | los angeles | 07/10/2008

(5 out of 5 stars)

"the energy of "fire songs" is a bit more vibrant than "southern manners", but the songs are just as gorgeous! the watson twins harmonize like no others and seem to bare their souls through lyrics & melodies.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!"

Great harmonies, great music

"The album starts off great with How Am I To Be Now. The twins harmonies are great and the song is very upbeat.

The album shifts to more mellow, a great rainy day or driving album.

I've owned it a while now and it is always near the top my stack.

The overall mood of this CD makes it easy to imagine sitting at the end of your favorite bar, an out-of-the-way one few people know, and hearing these two ladies sing to roomful half-full of regulars. A bar where no one will tell anyone else about the great music and good liquor, because they want it all to themselves. That's how this CD makes me feel."

"I love this album. I believe it was worth every penny. For those who are fans of the indie?folk genre should defiantly own this album. Even if you are not the biggest Indie fan it is still a great album for car rides or just sitting at home. this album will not disappoint. It has such a good vibe to it that you can't help but feel very happy when listening to this album."
