Nomads Indians Saints
Nomads Indians Saints is the third studio album by Indigo Girls, released in 1990. It was reissued and remastered in 2000 with three bonus tracks.
Reception
NME said, "The Indigos clearly want to update their genre with modern attitudes and poppy production, avoiding both Nashville's cheesy sentimentalism and Greenwich Village's wordy worthiness. Not every song pulls off this tricky balancing act. The Indigos bury their brightest qualities in clothes which are too often dreary and dated.Track listing
