White & White, “In Every Room” 2010
White & White are veteran musicians and writers whose long experience in live venues and recording studios forms the basis of their partnership as a song writing team. What began as a casual set of meetings in a recording studio, meant to explore musical and mutual affinities, has turned into a prolific creative effort, culminating in the release of a two-disk set of twenty-one songs, “In Every Room,” the group’s debut album released October 2010.
As a song writing team, White & White began by following a classical model characterized by the division of labor, with Michael as the composer and Terry as the lyric writer. (Think of the Gershwins, Rodgers and Hammerstein, Brooker and Reid, Elton John and Bernie Taupin, to name a few). Twenty of the twenty-one songs on “In Every Room” were composed by Michael, who plays most of the instruments on the record. The lyrics, vocal leads, and melodies on nineteen of the songs were written by Terry, who sings lead on twelve of them.
White & White, “In Every Room” is the first of what promises to be a series of offerings by this songwriting duo, with help from a very accomplished assortment of guest musicians. The songs are intelligent, funny, and wise, and this album offers a surprising range of musical styles, striking performances, and outstanding production values.
White & White, “In Every Room” on the Twin Palms label. Don't miss it.
