    These sisters really, really know how to sing. Their breath control, phrasing and harmonics are preternatural. Pure talent, homegrown and natural. This song is an American classic.

    I heard this song years ago. I still sing this song alone, but I remember how, for a while, I sang the low harmony with a girl who used to be my best friend.
    We don't talk anymore. But I miss singing with her all the same.

    Hello Everyone, First we just want to thank Ben for posting our video to Reddit. We know he is getting a lot of negativity because people think his post is not real. It is real and he is a friend not a promotion person. :)
    We have decided to release the EP today because of the Reddit post. See the link in the video description if you are interested.
    Thank you all so much for the comments and thank you Ben for posting on Reddit.

    I teared up at :26. I don't know that I've ever heard anything like these three songs. I'm grateful for them. You girls have incredible talent.

    I have never purchased music online until I heard your work. Truly worth it.
    'Back to the River' has been playing back-to-back in my head for 4 days now.

    For some reason the line Madeleine sings "And there you will be, my love" just makes my heart weep. It's just beautiful!!

    I think the reverb is perfect. Definitely adds to the overall mood. I'm usually very particular with reverberated vocals but I think it's great.

  • @nutellagoeat

  • @ThatGuyIn7A
    @ThatGuyIn7A 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    I don't normally buy music, no matter how much I love it. But I'm going to make an exception for you two, the music you make is beautiful and I want to see you guys make more of it. It gave me some intense feels.

    While studying this morning I had the CBS morning show on just as background noise. I stopped everything when I heard your voices singing Devil We Know. I listened, then rewound the show to get your names. Came directly to youtube. Teardrops! So beautiful. I found out yesterday that my fiancé and I are pregnant! I'm so looking forward to new this chapter in our lives and am happy that you will be the soundtrack to it all. My new favorite music!

    Singularly beautiful when you sing alone, the sound of angels when you harmonize. I predict an amazing career for both of you. I was here when there were only 5,000 views.

    You two perfect, I can't get enough of your songs.
    The only criticism I can give is to have more expression when you sing, in your face. It makes the emotions of the song more believable and will impact the audience even more.x
