For more than 20 years, Amy Ray has been known as one half of the folk-rock duo Indigo Girls two women whose music is built around counterpoint harmonies, catchy melodies and an activist spirit. Together, they've dropped 14 studio albums (including this year's independent release, Beauty Queen Sister), four live albums and earned a Grammy Award.

Ray has long been known for her big muscular heart, as a solo artist though; she has indisputably found her voice. In the pantheon of body parts romanticized in song, the heart is clearly the favorite (See: All Pop Songs), while the lung is as overlooked and misunderstood as a gangly feminist at a beauty pageant. But in Lung of Love, Amy Ray's sixth solo album in a decade, the punk-folk icon gives the humble apparatus its due. [High Road Touring/Mountain Xpress: Kim Ruehl].
