Catie Curtis delivers her most personal effort to date with Long Night Moon, an intricate work of stripped down modern folk. With grace and confidence, a more mature Curtis mingles reflections on motherhood (New Flowers), cold New England winters (Hey California) and delayed gratification (Long Night Moon, a song written about waiting for the belated arrival of her adopted baby daughter) with the unflinching dedication to social issues that has long characterized her strongest work. And in this inspired double bill of top female singer-songwriters, Susan Werner will be showcasing songs from her latest endeavor, "The Gospel Truth," a collection of originals
she describes as "hymns for the spiritually ambivalent."
