Snow & Voices' first album features only Kranz, Bruni, and Ric Menck on drums. However, their second album, What The Body Was Made For, showcases the talents of not only Kranz, Bruni, and Menck, but many other musicians who are associated with other well known musical acts, such as percussionist Joey Waronker of Beck and R.E.M. fame, and cellist Vanessa Freebairin-Smith, who has worked with Gnarls Barkley.

What The Body Was Made For truly reinforces the name Snow & Voices, in a way that will make the listener appreciate it, because this album really does sound like it is something that should be listened to on a snowy, winter day. Although all of the songs have a similar feel, there is not a weak track on this album. What The Body Was Made For also does a lovely job of blending classical instruments with the more traditional folk instruments and vocals.

It is intriguing that this album is released in the middle of the summer, because after listening to What The Body Was Made For, listeners will expect to see a beautiful snow scene, worthy of a Christmas card, when they walk outside. What The Body Was Made For will be released on July 1st, on Snow & Voices own record label, Elastic Ruby.
