This duo of singer Phil Lewis and guitarist Nigel Wiggins play in and around South Wales and have recorded this their second demo. With only occasional bits of keyboard to break up the potential monotony of a single guitar, there is bound to be a great deal of attention placed on vocal performance and songwriting craft and the duo don't come off completely unscathed from such close attention. For instance, pitching on "Still" is a tad suspect while "I Say A Prayer" sounds like a melody composed in five minutes. But at their best like the title track (of which this 11 song cassette offers two versions) they make an engaging roots-come-pop sound. And the price is bargain basement.
