Reviews of our newest release “Nine Lucid Dreams” (on Sarathan Records)

YAHOO! - "For downtown hipsters but their reach is decidedly global... [Sarah] Scott's a star in the making, her wailing, bad-girl-longing-for-love allure captivating from start to finish... she transports us to another world, for sure."

AMPLIFIER - “...with their most recent release, Nine Lucid Dreams, the dreamy duo Two Loons For Tea have crafted an album destined to fill every canal in your ears and every room in your residence with their lush beauty”

SEATTLE POST-INTELLIGENCER “.. singer-lyricist Sarah Scott and guitarist-composer Jonathan Kochmer perform with an engaging simplicity, their approach is not stripped down. Their subtly atmospheric arrangements already have found the Loons linked to the likes of Massive Attack, Portishead and the Cocteau Twins -- one might add the similarly dreamy duo Mazzy Starr -- and "Dreams" opens on a high note with the moody "Sunset Room,"...

EDGE - “Nine Lucid Dreams is a strong album that gets better with each listen... Nine Lucid Dreams is an example in improvisation, risk-taking, and experimentation - more admirable qualities than sticking with what you know and doing what’s easy. It’s a job well done by an intelligent and talented duo."

   About Two Loons for Tea

Two Loons for Tea are Sarah Scott and Jonathan Kochmer.

Together, Sarah and Jonathan make organic, lush, rich, and innovative music that defies genres and expectations. They break free from the norm while being a pleasure to simply listen to.

Sarah was raised by a free-spirited single mom in such exotic locales as the Haight-Ashbury neighborhood of San Francisco, near a nudist colony in the Mountains of Santa Cruz, and in metropolitan New York City. She has integrated the bohemian lifestyle into her own personal take on life, channeling it into her soulful singing.

Jonathan came to music from a different scene: although a life-long musician, he's been academician working in evolutionary biology, climatology, human genetics, Internet development and biostatistics, where he nurtured his attention for detail and a passion for invention.




Stream the full album "Nine Lucid Dreams" in this LastFM.com player, and ENJOY!

Good to hear from you guys as well and thank you for the kind words.  Hope all is well with you and looking forward to hearing some new material.  Maybe a show out here on the east coast at some point, hmm?  All the best to you both.

Hi Two Loons for Tea,

Its been a while and we thought it was about time we updated you on what we've
been up to. Our debut EP Little World is now available at our gigs and will
soon be available from our myspace and facebook pages, you will also be able to
download it from itunes, but we don't have a release date for this as yet.

To celebrate the fact that we have now reached 25,000 plays on myspace, we are
giving you a free MP3 of Rockabye Baby. All you have to do is send your email
address to queen.elvis@yahoo.ie and we will send it to you.

We have spent the last year rehearsing with a full band and are now ready to
bring it on the road. You can get a look at us when we appear on Balcony TV
this week with the full line up. We are currently taking bookings for
gigs/concerts/festivals and can be contacted on the email above, or through our
myspace and facebook pages.

Thankyou for your continued support in what has been a great year for us!

Best Wishes

Caroline and Colin

Very sorry for the delay on and all that the mix had some issues. I had it all set then the flu bug jumped up and bit my keaster. And then later I happened to here that eq settings we really messed up. But instead of rerecording the entire show I though have a little fun. The music is really solid even if the host is a moron, so I hope you'll let him slide this show and the next will be the request show on friday!!! Get you Vote, Request in FAST!!!
