Not only bandmates since the project came to be 10 years ago, the pair have been married since 2016 (three years later). Clearly, they’ve found in each other a relationship that just works, both personally and professionally.They bounce off of each other in conversation (which makes transcription a nightmare, but that’s OK), reading their respective minds and sharing thoughts. It’s a lovely, and impressive, thing to witness.In May they released the Live at Electric Lady EP, featuring five orchestral versions of songs from last year’s No Rules Sandy album, with string arrangements by Gabriel Kahane.“When Electric Lady asked us if we wanted to do a session, we immediately thought like, ‘Oh this will be a great opportunity to have full string arrangements in a studio, live.
