Description:
Personnel: Dave Gutierrez (guitar, steel guitar); Stephen Dorocke (guitar, lap steel guitar, violin); Eric Johnson (banjo); Darrell Sparks, Jason Toth (drums).
Husband-and-wife team Brett and Rennie Sparks have been working as the Handsome Family since the mid-1990s, coming on like the Gomez and Morticia Adams of alt-country. On HONEY MOON, though, things lighten up a little bit in that the deliciously doomy lyrical themes of yore are often abandoned for something more fanciful, but the overall effect is nevertheless as appealingly quirky as ever. Rennie`s songs are still full of odd, sometimes otherworldly occurrences, but there`s a lilt to them that steers things clear of the pair`s old haunts. And where Brett`s deep, husky voice was once employed strictly for how-low-can-you-go Johnny Cash-isms, the graceful melodies of HONEY MOON take him in a more actively melodic direction, simultaneously allowing him to discover more expressiveness in his singing than ever before.
