The album project led to a concert tour that has dates booked into November. Collins is hoping the duo becomes a going concern, though she has a number of other projects on her plate - a second album with singer-songwriter Ari Hest as well as a solo album, an album of Stephen Sondheim songs called Love Letter To Stephen Sondheim and a book, Cravings, about eating disorders and diets. “When we started rehearsing for the record (Stills) said, ‘Y’know, we should’ve done this from the first and sort of skipped the romance.’ And I said, ‘Yeah, but then you wouldn’t have written ‘Suite: Judy Blue Eyes,’ probably.” “I think a lot of people see this as a reunited romance, which in a way it is because it’s certainly a romantic musical romance because we’ve always liked each other’s work, and then we’ve also had a lot to say with each other,” Collins says. The idea for the project dates back nearly a decade, and the recent Crosby, Stills & Nash hiatus provided an opening for Stills to move forward in earnest. “It’s got the markings of something that was bound to happen, and by some miracle both of us are still on the planet and feeling very healthy and positive,” Collins says.
