Dean Wareham & Britta Phillips "L'Avventura"

Reviews and News about L'Avventura
"If Wareham was waiting for the right collaborator, he waited just long enough. Barbie-ish bassist Britta Phillips has been pitching tents in corduroys on the last few Luna tours...on her duets with Wareham, the two complete each other, and Wareham's sideline fantasy life becomes the Luna fan's candy-infested playground".
Delusions of Adequacy "with Wareham and Phillips both trading and harmonizing lines in voices barely louder than speaking tones - it feels like they're holding drinks while recording their vocals"
"...while the album's mood is hazy and unreal; L'Avventura's romantic relationships always seem to be five minutes away from a devastating finish, like a particularly heart-rending vacation fling, a French film or a WB series relationship montage"
"Dean goes Euro cool!"

Thanks! That is a great interview, it is nice to see Britta really taking the lead press wise with this release, it is great to see a fellow female/bass player step forward and talk about music/the process.
