Neptune’s Car comprises singer songwriter Holly Hansen from Massachusetts and New Hampshire guitarist songwriter Steve Hayes. Neptune's Car was in fact a clipper ship with a female captain in the 1800s.

‘Letters from the Road’ is the follow up to their highly acclaimed debut album Strawberry Moon (2010). Originating from a road trip to Nashville it details the sights and sounds of the road – featuring the themes of the road and the heart.

From the opening track, ‘Flashing in the Dark an acoustic love song to the upbeat ‘One More Glass of Wine’, to the quirky Truck Song (one of two songs by Hayes on the album) this is an album of rich textures and contrasting tones.

As an aside despite being a road album it features as many references to drinking I seen on a record in a long time – no bad thing and as well listening to the lovely sounds you could play the drinking game (i.e. every reference to a drink or drinking you have one!) at the same time.

That all said, a real find and highly recommended.
