The best kept secret in music

"It takes an amazing female voice to make me a convert, but lead singer Cara has me converted. Her voice is perfect for this dark-alley, smoky, jazz-esque music- smooth, lithe, and most of all not breathy...But Cara isn’t the only thing that makes Cecil Dreeme’s Honey and Crocodile Tears so deliciously good. The fact that the songwriting behind her is stellar definitely helps out. This band sounds like it lives in a dark and smoky bar- churning out moody, dark, but still soft tunes that sound like the soundtrack to loneliness...Each of these songs are near-perfect in their execution- it’s hard to knock anything in this album...Anything you could wish for in an dark, spacious alt-pop album is right here."

"This is a band that makes some very moody, very ethereal, very beautiful music...I can sit down, turn the lights down low, and listen to this for hours and hours."
