Society of Broken Souls
Midnight and the Pale
Review by Gary Hill
There is a big roots music movement under way. This fits well into that concept. This is a duo of Dennis Jones and Lauryn Shapter. The fact that they have both male and female vocals allows for some real variety as they almost equally split up the vocal duties. Mind you, Shapter sings one more song than Jones does. They alternate singing every other song throughout the set, other than at one point where Shapter sings two in a row. The music here is folk based with a lot of country and other element at play. This is entertaining and diverse.
