Description
Singer-songwriters Deb Talan & Steve Tannen began writing together the night they met, and soon formed indie band The Weepies. On the strength of their simple yet insightful songwriting and distinctive harmonies, they quietly sold more than a million records, with over 17 million streams on Spotify, and 20 million views on YouTube. They married and had three children, rarely touring but continuing to release their music, five records over seven years.
In 2014, Deb beat cancer, and The Weepies recorded the best album of their career. Coming back from the edge sharpened their skills and focus. At 16 songs and almost an hour long, SIRENS shows a band at the height of its powers.
The prophetic No Trouble was written prior to learning Debs diagnosis. I don't need no trouble, but sometimes trouble needs me, sings Steve; Debs vocals were recorded during her first weeks of chemo.
The couple continued to write and record throughout treatment, with Deb providing several key vocals far into the year, including title track Sirens, captured in one take on a day where Deb really only had one take in her; her vulnerability is tangible.
We just kept going, says Deb. We also have 3 small children, and were homeschooling, and the effects of chemo blew whole days out of the water.
