DO TELL is the follow-up to Hat Fitz and Cara Robinson’s ‘acclaimed-in-all-the right-quarters, for all-the-right-reasons’, (FATEA) WILEY WAYS album (2012) which followed on from the pair’s first offering BEAUTY & THE BEAST (2011). The 10 original tracks featured on DO TELL are diverse in style; the myriad of influences all naturally observed and absorbed. The country-tinged opener ‘Friday Night’, moves into the shuffling, funky gait of ‘Stray Hat’, then there’s the raunchy blues shout out of ‘Gotta Love’ and the beautiful but mournful broken hearted blues of ‘Long Dark Cloud’. The folky ‘Sister Sister’ and the infectious, driving boogie of ‘Shakedown’ come before the hillbilly finish on ‘Coming Home’. It sounds like the pair had themselves a grand time making this album.
