Darin & Brooke Aldridge — This Life We’re Livin’

Label: Billy Blue Records

The past year hasn’t really inspired me to open up, listen, and review many of the constant arrival of CDs that find their way to me at my pandemic hideout far away from New York City. I appreciate the effort it takes these artists, but most of it hasn’t risen to the level that would get me typing the words you are reading right now.

Then, along came Darin & Brooke Aldridge and their latest album, This Life We’re Livin’. It is comfort to know that strong songs, played by stellar musicians, with heartfelt vocals, can still make you feel, well… just how you want to feel. This collection of songs is treated with care and total trust in the material. In seeking to place the songs in the foreground, Darin and Brooke Aldridge show themselves to be the best kind of artists — ones that know the true power of good music and deliver it.

What more can I write? Their harmonies alone could restore your faith in the power of human cooperation. This album will energize your soul and get well on your way. Enjoy.
