Lantana

Description

Product description 2008 SIGNATURE SOUNDS RECORDING COMPANY CD Review "Insightful, evocative writing is the common denominator of Lantana, a compelling acoustic album rooted in the complexities of women's lives, especially women of the south. " -- No Depression 2008"Pretty good concept album of sorts about the South, with a highlight being a song from theprojected viewpoint of Susan Smith, who drowned her two sons." -- Ken Barnes, USA Today"Treasured moments -- coming-of-age bookends "Heartbreak Tonight" and "Fair and Tender Ladies," say, or the closing "Song for Fay" -- celebrates women and strength in vulnerability. Every attempt pierces its mark. In fact, few folk albums since Young's 2005 hallmark "The Art of Virtue" have proved a more thorough success.....an embarrassment of riches drawing the straightest line between tradition and transition." -- Austin American Statesmen
