Diary Of A Mod Housewife

by Amy Rigby

supported by

weegeebee This album is great. It’s full of wonderfully written pop songs with a modern, knowing twist. There isn’t a track I would skip, though I particularly love the more feisty ones (20 Questions, That Tone of Voice).
The fact that you are married to Eric makes perfect sense and I can imagine him singing any one of these songs. The 2 of you seem to be cut from the same cloth.
My only regret is that I didn’t discover it when it first came out. Thank you.

gvandeusen Such a wonderful album- honest, thought provoking, and catchy. Also check out Amy’s excellent 2018 release “The Old Guys.”
