Given that Azure Ray split up in 2004, shortly after releasing their breakthrough album Hold On Love, it’s a pleasant surprise to see them return with a new album, Drawing Down the Moon. The band’s core duo, Orenda Fink and Maria Taylor, reformed last year, much to the delight of fans (including us!). And even though they spent more than half a decade apart, these ladies picked up right where they left off, resulting in a collaboration that’s full of beauty and energy, like a soundtrack to a dream. What an excellent way to start the week.
