You do not have to listen for long to discover that this Irish duo, now based in America, process quality harmonies that would put many signed acts to shame. From the gentle "Rushing Wind", to the up-tempo "Till Our Work On Earth Is Done", the professionalism and dedication shines through this 2008 release. The latter track lays out their mission statement of giving themselves completely to God as a couple "You are the potter, we are the clay/You are the Father, please guide us in your way". Musicianship is also high with tracks like "Lest We Fall" (the only song not self-penned) featuring great piano work by Steve and electric guitar courtesy of Robbie Freeman. Steve is an outstanding songwriter; the emotion in tracks like "Took Me In" would melt the hardest of hearts. This is a great showcase for the talent present here and why Steve & Connie remain unsigned is a mystery.
