Review by Brian Heffron

Did You Ever Wonder Why is a unique and captivating album that showcases the talents of Dickon Hinchliffe, Cara Dillon, and Rowan Atkinson. The album features a mix of folk and cinematic music, with each track telling a story through its lyrics and instrumentation.

Hinchliffe's skills as a composer are evident throughout the album, with each track featuring intricate and layered arrangements that perfectly complement Dillon's hauntingly beautiful vocals. Atkinson's spoken word performances add an additional layer of depth and emotion to the tracks, providing a unique perspective on the stories being told.

One standout track on the album is "The Parting Glass," a traditional Irish song that has been given a new life through Dillon's stunning vocals and Hinchliffe's breathtaking arrangement. Atkinson's spoken word performance on "The Parting Glass" is also a highlight, adding a sense of melancholy and reflection to an already emotional track.
