I'm so excited for the full release of this album. These two preview tracks are wonderful. "December in Her Eyes" is so slinky and moved me so much I slid out of my chair listening to it. Thoughtful writing and gorgeous, captivating music--this sounds like an amazing artist firing on all cylinders. Damon Dorsey
