The garden verge, the former duo made up of Ty Greenstein and Doris Muramatsu, was created twenty-five years ago when a second-grade teacher in Princeton Junction, New Jersey sat the two girls next to each other, certain that they would never speak to one another. Instead, they became best friends. Their musical partnership began a few years later when Ty took up the guitar and Doris began to spontaneously sing harmonies. "Shadow of a Habit", released in 2001, is the first result of this collaboration. With intelligent songs and daring vocal harmonies, the album is a glimpse of the inspiration behind Girlyman. "Greenstein and Muramatsu are fiercely talented young singer-songwriters whose melodious musical style is as unique and enchanting as their history. On 'Shadow of a Habit,' their blend is beautifully complete, their harmonies seductive and complex." --The New York Blade
