"The Watsons consult vintage Southern styles for inspiration, incorporating touches of country and plenty of hot-blooded soul." — Spin
"Derivative, original, heartfelt, savvy, retro, modern and genuinely enjoyable." — The Independent
Following on the critical success of Rabbit Fur Coat, their 2006 collaboration with Jenny Lewis, Southern Manners (2006 self- released EP) and Fire Songs, their 2008 Vanguard Records full-length debut, The Watson Twins return with Talking To You, Talking To Me their most groove-heavy and ambitious album to date. The 12 songs on TTY, TTM, produced by Russell Pol- lard and J. Soda of Everest, display a new sonic direction previously only hinted at in past efforts. Yes, the folk, country and Americana roots of Leigh and Chandra Watson remain, but the duo also explores and reveals their long-held love of R&B, Bossa Nova, indie pop and most prominently, classic soul.
