After their first successful collaboration on “Don’t Explain” this highly talented duo is back with “Seesaw”. As with “Don’t Explain”, “Seesaw” is tastefully produced by Kevin Shirley (Black Crowes, John Hiatt, Joe Bonamassa, Led Zeppelin).
 
"Beth’s got a pretty heady voice, very reminiscent of Janis Joplin", says Shirley. "She’s also got a lot of Etta James in her. With this material, there’s gentleness to the way she delivers the most heartfelt tunes. She’s done a fantastic job".
