      Produced by Howard Benson (P.O.D., Blindside), Two Angels and A Dream thrives under a compelling and often convention-defying mix: raucous, ringing guitars; driving, frequently chomping rock rhythms; wide-ranging, sincerely shaped vocals; and engaging arrangements, all cast within a powerful melodic current.
     On this dramatic sonic canvas, songs shift from such explosive, dynamic numbers as "This Time", which is their first single and my favorite song on the album, and “Not Responsible” to such tracks as the stirring, unplugged "The Traveler's Song" with guest backing vocals by solo artist Sierra Swan (Cold, Black Eyed Peas).
     The band’s songs may be as deep as their meaning. Depswa is a Swahili word meaning "deep behind the moon" and also a South American term for tribal healer. Songs like "The Prom Song”, “Needles”, and the title track are definitely heart felt and can cause the listener to do a little soul searching. Thematically, Two Angels and A Dream explores the inner-workings of both self-doubt and self-confidence, relationships gone hopelessly wrong and wonderfully right, and the fragile balancing act that determines the course of so many lives.
