Multi-instrumentalists George Veech and Jessica Anderly are keeping Portland weird. The Oregonian duo work through the more bizarre aspects of folk, Americana mountain music, and jazz to deliver their own peculiar vision, which belongs in the Freak-Folk Hall of Fame. Veech's vocals twist and turn with a devilish glee that's perfect considering how much these folks like to sing about Satan. They can play it straight; "My Love" is a pretty instrumental. But they really love to roll around in a wacky circus tent of oddballs; "J Howard Marshall" evokes brutal words for Anna Nicole Smith, and "Snake & the Girl" brings out the frustrated preacher in Veech, who sounds like an understudy for the early days of The Violent Femmes. Anderly's violin and cello add a touch of rustic menace, especially for the Tom Waits–like waltz pulse of "Orange Peel." Their vaudevillian sense kicks in for "Done Been Showed," while the guitars are broken out for the Pere Ubu–gone–folk of "Miss Sandy." Truly eclectic from start to finish.
