Review:
This album has a crazy backstory: Deb Talan & Steve Tannen had 3 kids and in late 2013 Deb was diagnosed with breast cancer. Through chemo, she managed to beat it the next year. They wrote and recorded this album during the period, much of which is about their challenges. Backing musicians (incl folks from Elvis Costello, David Bowie, Foo Fighters, Peter Gabriel, Sia, etc) recorded remotely b/c they couldn't leave home with her chemo treatments. Beautiful hypnotic folk-pop.
