“The interplay between the two is characterized by audible empathy and attention for each other, and the intimacy of the recording technique (…) adds to the dreamy feel-good factor of this wonderfully well-rounded album.”

“The two musicians radiate so much blissful, powerful energy. Gudrun’s astonishing violin and Andy’s exhilarating diatonic accordion seem to move, shimmer and dance, and the whole collection has an incredibly heady atmosphere of spontaneity, interaction and extremely open ears. Their music is sassy, proud and very intoxicating. Gudrun and Andy have the enviable and quite magical knack of absolutely spellbinding the transfixed audience, which has them wanting more of their amazing music.”
