Just the Two of Us is the eighth studio album by Secret Garden. It was released on 27 December 2013 by Hearts of Space and Universal.
The purely instrumental album features Secret Garden playing some of their most popular songs re-envisioned as duo arrangements along with two new pieces: the title-track “Just the Two of Us” and “En Passant”.
Rolf Løvland described the album, “Our music always starts with just the two of us – Rolf & Fionnuala; even when we’re performing with a full production on stage. So it feels natural and good to perform some of our music in the most intimate and stripped-down version – that musical place where Secret Garden was born.”
The album debuted at number seven on the Billboard Top New Age Albums chart.
