I love music.  I do.  We always have it playing here at Green With Glamour.  I couldn’t live without it because I believe it feeds the soul.  And it’s all types that I enjoy… rock, blues, classical, hip hop, country, jazz, soul, global and even some pop.  Which brings me to my current obsession – Night Covers by The Watson Twins.  It’s a soon-to-be-released album (I have an advanced copy) of all cover songs as sung by the oh-so-harmonious TWT.

And here’s why it’s worthy of my fanaticism… not only does it feature the beautiful and soulfully melodic voices of Chandra and Leigh Watson, but the array of songs they cover is inspired!  From The Turtles to The Eurythmics to The Black Keys, The Watson Twins put their musical swerve on songs I know and love.  Thought the album isn’t in wide release for a few weeks, check out this video teaser to Night Covers (featuring Bo Koster of My Morning Jacket) for a teeny, tiny taste… AND then watch a teaser to my biggest obsession of the obsession, The Watson Twins’ cover of You Showed Me by The Turtles.

Annnnnnnd… get a FREE DOWNLOAD of “You Showed Me” HERE! Ob-sessed.

We are just thrilled offer our glorious readers, fans & clients an exciting new giveaway for Feb… The Watson Twins gift set – which, hang tight, includes a copy of TWT’s AMAZING, NEW CD (yet to be released), Talking To You, Talking To Me!

Gorgeous, right?  Stunning photography by Dan Monick. Brilliant artwork by Desi Moore.

What critics are saying about the new album…

SPIN MAGAZINE:   “Taking a cue from Shelby Lynne, the Watsons consult vintage Southern styles for inspiration, incorporating touches of country and plenty of hot-blooded soul. The only problem with “Calling Out,” “Forever Me,” and other alluring tracks is that they end too soon — the sultry vocals, churchy organ, and stinging electric guitar of “Midnight” leave you craving more.”

ELLE MAGAZINE: “Their soulful harmonies are at the center of a sparkling pop sound that has a Memphis-meets-L.A. texture and hooks that work their charms on you instantly.”

MARIE CLAIRE MAGAZINE:
“As sisters Chandra and Leigh’s harmonies wrap around hissing cymbals and jazzy guitar, this languorous, closing-time cabaret song builds into a long slow good-night kiss to melt all your late-winter blues.”

AND you’ll win a copy of their mellifluous 2008 cd, Fire Songs…

AND a top secret, yet-to-be-released cotton tote bag (also designed by Desi Moore)!

YAY!

The latest effort, It Might Get Loud, by Davis Guggenheim (An Inconvenient Truth – um… and also the new Melrose Place pilot) is a documentary about the electric guitar “from the point of view of” Rock-n-Roll legends, Jack White (The White Stripes, The Raconteurs, The Dead Weather – and my dreams), Jimmy Page (Led Zeppelin and The Yardbirds) and The Edge (U2).  I heart music documentaries… Hail! Hail! Rock and Roll (Chuck Berry) lifted my spirit and Let’s Get Lost (Chet Baker) crushed it.  Hell, I even saw Truth or Dare in the theatre.  And now, comes my next chance to fall in love with, potentially question the motives of and get an altogether different perspective on 3 more remarkable musicians!

Hits LA & NYC theaters this weekend!
