With the release of Forward Motion, Davison/Coleman signal that they’re on to something special; a deeply musical expression of sincerity coupled with poignant lyrics, superb performances, and a sparse but lush arrangement style that is beautifully warm and lends a classic and ageless quality to the tracks. This largely acoustic focused album features the warm clear voice of Lynn Davison (vocals, keyboards) and the exotic sound of the Laud which falls somewhere between a 12-string guitar and mandolin - is often called "magical" – delivered to the listener with virtuosity by Cole Coleman (Laud, guitar, keyboards, vocals). Davison shows her accomplished musicianship with rich, layered vocal arrangements while the duo combine their talents for orchestration. For Fans Of - Those that enjoy acoustic music without unnecessary folksiness, not to mention songwriting of the highest quality will enjoy this album immensely. The songs have a likeable, bittersweet quality to them that leaves the listener moved and uplifted all at the same time. Forward Motion is an album of beauty and warmth. A Must Have – For those seeking that rare artist who is unique; guitar enthusiasts looking for an innovative player; those who enjoy sophisticated singer/songwriters; and those who want to be drawn in and carried away on a moving journey will be pleased to discover this talented duo. --Stephen Lambe in Cheltenham, England and Russ Elliot in New York; MusicalDiscoveries.com
