We have been hard at work over the past months. Much like busy elves we've been working down in our basement building, moulding, shaping some music that, frankly, we think is beautiful. "The Pearl" is the result.

This month, on February 15th, we release it to the world.

Making music together has been an unlooked for gift to us. This month we also celebrate 15 years of marriage, and making music together like this has only really become part of our relationship over the past few years. We really can't say what took us so long. On the other hand, the timing of this just feels so good. Our living room very often feels like a scene out of of the movie "Once" (excellent film) or "Nashville" (the mediocre television show with occasionally excellent music). There is joy in this music. There is joy for us in the co-mingling of our voices. There is joy in having fully co-produced this together. Every arrangement bears both of our fingerprints.

So, we hope you love these first fruits from The MacQueens. There are many more songs to come... many are already written and waiting in the wings, and many are waiting to be written. Good times. Enjoy.

With love,

The MacQueens
