Crazy Stories is the debut album by CCM duo Serene & Pearl, later known as Considering Lily. It was released on August 31, 1995[1] by ForeFront Records. The duo was composed of sisters Serene Campbell and Pearl Barrett at the time of this release.

Critical reception[edit]

John Bush of AllMusic says, "On their debut album, the sisters duo (born in Australia) play acoustic folk-pop with pleasing harmonies and good songwriting, akin to the Indigo Girls but not merely derivative."[2]

Mike Rimmer reviews the album for Cross Rhythms and gives it an 9 out of a possible 10 and writes, "Their debut album is confident, upbeat and well produced acoustically tinged pop showcasing Serene & Pearl's blend of pure harmonies which sweep and swoop throughout the album."[3]
