Blue Goes Home |
PR reports: If the axiom, "What doesn't kill
you only makes you stronger," has any merit, it certainly applies to singer/songwriter
Chrisopher Blue and his evidentiary full-length, ROOM TONES, due April
17 on Sarathan Records. A subdued lullaby to a convoluted past, the album's
12 tracks were forged from Blue's tumultuous life and showcases a musician
who has finally found peace. This newfound state was previewed on a five-song
self-titled EP released Sept. 26 via Sarathan Records and digitally on
iTunes.
"It's almost as if these songs were written
for where I am now," says Blue of his rooted sound. "Psychologically I
was in a different place than I was physically. I'm home today in my heart
and my head, and the songs reflect that process. They're the stories of
how I got home."[see full story for more]- Click

Campbell never rocks out; instead,
she mostly floats vocals over gently finger-picked acoustic guitar and
mournful cello. All the while this woman's wisp of a voice is perfectly
pitched, yet somehow still authoritative. (4 stars)

While this spastic quintet is
able to play sophisticated music that clearly requires talent, the ongoing
blur of random instruments and vocals makes their second album, "Our Puzzling
Encounters Considered," an annoying barrage of directionless sound. -
