Principally recorded at The Ghost Rooms, London, England; Southern Tracks Recording, Atlanta, Georgia; Jerrsville Studios, Woodstock, New York. COME ON NOW SOCIAL picks up where its predecessor, SHAMING OF THE SUN, left off. Emily Sailers and Amy Ray continue to bring electric guitars into play in the Indigo Girls' idiosyncratic, folk-based musical stew. The opening "Go" is one of their more blistering offerings to date, while "Trouble" seethes with almost equal vitriol. Pleasant and upbeat diversions such as the banjo and mandolin-tinged "Gone Again" and the pop-scented "Peace Tonight" leaven the mix. An all-star cast of singers and instrumentalists lends its talents to COME ON NOW SOCIAL, including Sheryl Crow, Joan Osborne, and Me'Shell Ndegeocello. One of the most remarkable contributions comes from Natacha Atlas, who adds a stunning vocal performance on the sprawling, Celtic-flavored "Fay Tucker." The song was written as a tribute to Karla Fay Tucker, who, in 1998, became the first woman executed by the State of Texas since the Civil War. COME ON NOW SOCIAL is a thoroughly ambitious and rewarding effort and offers a good entry point into the Indigo Girls' catalogue.
