Amy Domingues (cello, keys, vox) and her friends Mary Timony (guitar), Jonah Takagi (bass), and Brandon Butler (drums), venture into psych-folk soundscapes where Fairport Convention meets Black Sabbath, Zeppelin channels Bert Jansch, and a smidgen of Erik Satie to top it off.

*********************************************************

"Amy Domingues has played cello on albums by many of D.C.'s biggest names -- Fugazi, Ted Leo and Bob Mould, just to name a few. On "The Soundest Serum," she proves she's no mere sidewoman, though, as she leads her band through a strong set nine-song set. The tracks range from the torchy, spooky murder ballad "Dear Henry" -- highlighted by the cutting guitar work of frequent collaborator Mary Timony -- to the bouncy, piano-driven "Brick Eyes" to the solo-cello showcase of album closer "Difficult Run." There's certainly a medieval feel to the proceedings, but this isn't Renaissance Faire fare. It's hip, seductive chamber pop done right." WASHINGTONPOST.COM
