The EP shines with its bittersweet blend of a reserved musical background that leaves space for Craig’s earthy voice and Laura’s soaring, ethereal vocals to connect, embrace and unravel again. The four Orbison songs here were chosen to chart the age-old narrative of falling in and out of love and the deep longing for romance and connection we all feel.

Easing in at the start, the more playful title track “In Dreams” captures that first quivering hint of impending romance, with all its promise and risk. The classic ‘Love Hurts’ follows, reminding us that for all its joys and wonders, love is never, ever a smooth ride. This theme develops further when Side Two opens with “Crying” and the realization that it’s all slipping away, and the record and story then closes, after the fact and coming full circle, with the solitary self-medication that is ‘Lonely Wine’.
