“These days it seems the music news brings word of another husband-wife duo making its mark on the contemporary roots scene. But any such list would be suspect without the addition of Canada’s The Laws. Their voices blend beautifully–John’s reedy, gritty tenor and Michele’s plaintive, alto drawl (you’ll hear some Emmylou lurking in there) are one of the most beautiful harmonic convergences in contemporary music.” The Bluegrass Special, New York, NY
