Bio: When not performing, this duo is known as Rebecca Hall and Ken Anderson and you will need to go a long way to find a more talented and likeable couple.

Press

“Translation from German: The extremely talented singer/songwriter duo Rebecca Hall and Ken Anderson enjoy an exalted reputation among genre fans as modern representatives of traditions-based folk music. Those fans are likely to be thrilled by Any Forgotten Thing, the second album by this couple who have been married since 1994, which once again features convincing melodies sung with angelic voices. This is hymn-like folk-pop filled with harmonies, sophisticated lyrics and dreamy fairy tales. The result is a delicate, airy sound that will delight any connoisseur.”

— Max W. Achatz, Country Jukebox

“Decades from now, if there’s anyone alive, Hall’s broodingly aphoristic songs will be remembered as the folk music of the early part of the 21st century. Her nonchalantly lilting yet minutely nuanced vocals pack a quiet wallop, as does her casually purist tunesmithing, while Anderson’s elegant mandolin, percussion and harmonies match the subtlety of the songwriting. This isn’t the kind of music you hear at Starbucks although some of it might someday be played in the ruins of one.”

— Delarue, New York Music Daily

“* * * * 1/2 (out of 5) Any Forgotten Thing plays like a collection of twelve classic folk and pop songs, but is entirely original and driven by the simple beauty of Rebecca Hall's alto and the sparse yet fulfilling arrangements crafted by Anderson. The mix of Rebecca Hall's voice and poignant songwriting, and Ken Anderson's brilliantly simple arrangements is musical gold. This is an album you put on 'repeat all' and live with for a while, and then revisit often in the comfort of old friends. Any Forgotten Thing is destined for year-end, best-of lists.”

— Wildy, Wildy's World

“* * * * 1/2 (out of 5) Here's proof positive that simplicity can be musically sublime, a dozen times over.”

— Arthur Wood, Maverick Magazine

“* * * * (out of 5) Hungrytown play what used to be called American folk music, folk music without the frills, folk with predominantly Irish and Scottish influences, but which nowadays would be filed under 'Americana'. Had they been around in the 1960s, you could imagine husband and wife duo, Ken Anderson and Rebecca Hall, packing them into Greenwich Village clubs and coffee houses. There's a simple, unadorned majesty to their songs that vividly recalls this era.”

— David Burke, R2 (Rock 'n' Reel)

“A reverence for the music of our collective past, tempered by a keen modern sensibility and a gift for heartfelt storytelling. The music simply transcends any particular time or place.”

— Dan Bolles, Seven Days
