Silver Shoes music feels comfortable and familiar as a reunion with a longtime comrade, Old Friend is an appropriate title for their most recent offering. Silver Shoes is comprised of the duo of Maureen Finlon and John Finnigan.  Their crisp vocals and clean sound are carried through on every track making for a pleasant listening journey.  To help them along, Finlon and Finnigan assembled a band of ace musicians and friends from high places. The record starts off in good fashion and showcases Silver Shoe’s tight harmonies and crack musicianship.   

All in all, visiting with Old Friend is time well spent.

Silver Shoes Review posted on www.insurgentcountry,com Germany

It’s not the most perfect fit, but Silver Shoes belongs next to Nanci Griffith, just ahead of Shawn Colvin.  Maureen Finlon’s voice is a beautiful fit with a country-lilt to the songs.  These are country songs, which tap into American Folk and Rock.   If you listen to what Silver Shoes is doing with these country-fried melodies, you’ll see how much these songs spin right out of the narrowly defined Country category.  When you start bringing together all of those sounds, what emerges is more than you might first expect.
