She’s now a mum so her high-flying trapeze days are over. But P!nk is still a musical daredevil and her latest CD features plenty of her no-holds-barred and tartly tongued brand of rock.

Harmonizing sweetly on original folk songs like the deeply moving “Break the Cycle” and their cover of Sade’s “No Ordinary Love,” this new duo is pure magic.
