Accordion drama-pop cabaret, female duo from Detroit. Quirky keyboards, sparse electric guitar, and accordion. All female vocals (except first track), often speak-singing, often strange lyrics (unicorns and stuff, you know). All tracks are cool. Start with 2, 3, 5, 10, 13.

1.Short [0:44] slow intro, accordion, male vox, sound effects.
2.[3:42] * Chinese elements open mid tempo cute song. Two female vox, electric guitar, accordion, whistles.*
3. [2:45] Slow accordion waltz. *
4. [0:23] Reprise of track 3.
5. [5:12] Mid tempo, long accordion/slow electric guitar jams. Cool stuff. *
6. [3:15] Mid/slow, strange toy keyboard, muffled vox.
7. [4:18] Good old “umpa-umpa” rhythm.
8. [3:59] Mid tempo.
9. [1:35] Strange almost acapella two echoed vocals chant/speak.
10. * 1-2-3 relationship waltz. Nice guitar picking. *
11. [2:11] Slow/mid Instrumental Circus merrygoround, bells and funny keyboards.
12. [6:19] Mid tempo, simple programmed beat, speaking-singing-raising slightly washed vocals.
13. * Longish mid tempo instrumental [6:02] Accordion accompanies hypnotic electric guitar doodling. Slightly European/Mediterranean. *
