Album Intro:

Time Between Trains is an album of small virtues. The production by Darell Scott is spare and beautiful. Scott adorns each song with subtly idiosyncratic touches (Scottish bagpipes, Indian tablas) that add surprising textures. This is an album for travelers between allegiances, romantic and otherwise. Throughout, one hears mandolins, bouzoukis, trumpets, and violins, yet the overall effect is intimate. Unfortunately, Werner is a better vocalist than songwriter. Some tunes are melodically flat and lyrically pedantic. Strangely, she finally lets her hair down with the hidden track, 'When They Make a Movie of My Life.' Seemingly intended as a joke, it has much more going on melodically than many of her originals. --Anthony Bonet
