Brett and Rennie Sparks, the Southern-gothic country duo known as the Handsome Family, will release Honey Moon in April, a month in which they will also celebrate 20 years of marriage. Anyone who’s seen the loving spectacle that is the Handsome Family’s live show/comedy act/spousal insult marathon realizes that these two asylum escapees (Rennie paints pet portraits; we suspect Brett is on heavy medication) know more about love than any of us ever will. Brett and Rennie are weirder and more wonderful than any characters in a Tom Waits song, so when they give you a valentine, you should take it and bury it in a patch of land in the center of a corn maze.
