Local singer/songwriters Melissa McClelland and Luke Doucet have not only decided to merge their lives (they're married) but they've now chosen to intertwine their music.
The result is Whitehorse, the couple's new project, who's beautiful self-titled debut was recently released through Six Shooter Records.
These two definitely work well together musically. Both have strong voices but when they join together, the harmonies are wonderful.
Highlights include the infectious Killing Time is Murder and Broken, the powerful Passenger 24, and a wonderful version of Springsteen's I'm On Fire.
Mike does an amazing job with these jazzy pre-war numbers (such as Dinah, Rocking Chair, Jitterbug Waltz). Though he maintains the feel of the originals there is a modern polish to them. His guitar work and vocals are in great form here.
This is mainly a one man show as Mike handles guitar, bass, banjo and more. Jill Daley does join him on violin for the title track though. His frequent musical partner Alec Fraser helped mix the songs.
