Blissed Out Productions artists: Ducharme - Jones - Strangest Things - New Release review

I just had the opportunity to review the latest release, Strangest Things, from Ducharme-Jones. Opening with Red Roses, a country rocker, David Ducharme-Jones takes the lead on vocal and guitar with Anne Ducharme-Jones singing harmony. His guitar work is actually quite interesting with Mark Leshner on drums, David Evertson on bass and David Breaux on keys. Smooth ballad, Wherever You Go is a well written track with nicely blended vocals. Anne takes the lead on vocals on I Was Wrong, a radio track with rock and country roots. One of my favorites on the release is Of The Water, with delicate guitar work and nicely blended vocals, reminiscent of Graham Nash and David Crosby. Rocker, The Girl Is Gone, features some of the coolest guitar work on the release with constructiuon not unlike Lindsay Buckingham and Stevie Nicks. Wrapping the release is country rocker, Good Enough with a super hook. Well blended vocals and solid organ support by Breaux makes this a perfect closer for this Austin based duo.

Strangest Things features the songwriting husband-wife team, David and Anne Ducharme-Jones. It was produced and recorded at The Track Shack in South Austin.      Highlighted tracks to listen to and play include: Strangest Things (rock) Red Roses (country rock) Wherever You Go (poignant singer-songwriter)       David and Anne added a new facet to their successful relationship with co-writing these 13 songs. Though Anne has sung on David's solo albums and helped with David's songs this is the first time they have completely collaborated on all aspects. The thing they love the most about the writing partnership is the eclectic nature of the songs they bring to life. These songs are snippets of their own history, mostly love stories, including upbeat roots-rocker "Red Roses" and "Two Satellites", alongside moody and ambient "Of the Water", whimsical, jazzy "Wherever You Go", and funky "The Girl Is Gone." Anne steps into lead vocals on rootsey-rockers "I Don't Need You," "Crazy Heart," and "I Was Wrong." Click here to take a listen:  http://www.ducharmejones.com/music/
