Clare Muldaur and Olivier Manchon are a husband-and-wife duo who work with a steady stream of contributors and instruments with each new album. The Movie, Clare & the Reasons’ 2007 debut, featured collaborations with Sufjan Stevens and Van Dyke Parks. Arrow includes My Brightest Diamond’s Shara Worden and continues with the group’s jazz-influenced chamber pop, even featuring a string-heavy cover of Tears For Fears’ “Everybody Wants to Rule the World.”
