With the dissolution of The Swell Season, it is hard to find good male and female duet groups. The Civil Wars have now thrown their hat into this ring and they accomplish it quite well. Their debut album Barton Hollow is a very strong effort and should give them instant gratification of such a debut.
The album's opening track "20 Years" is a great example of how the duet can harmonize, while "Poison & Wine" shows how the duet can exchange lines and turn a song into a conversation or an exchange of unsaid thoughts and feelings. Below is the aforementioned opening track to show how beautiful harmonies can be, so enjoy it.
