“These two are magic. Who else could give you a beautiful rendition of a traditional Thai song, sung by Shannon in fluent Thai, with it sounding like an Irish trad masterpiece! Brilliant.” –Live Ireland

“An excellent collection… they have a great feel for the subtle quiet aspects of Irish music and a total command of the lilt and swing involved in phrasing it properly. Their version of the oft murdered classic Botany Bay is beautiful. The rest ain’t bad either! Highly recommended.” -Penguin Eggs

“In this world that can be so harsh and sharp around the edges some days, a CD like ‘Lovers’ Well’ is like a balm for the spirit.” –Acoustic Junction
