Free Music Review: Simply titled Brandi Carlile
Hit: 5 Stars
Seattle, Washington tends to churn out the most prolific singer-songwriters and bands and Brandi Carlile is no exception. Do not let the album artwork deceive you. Carlile's self-titled major label debut contains a chock full of exceptional tracks that range from folk-country to rock and roll. There is no denying that Carlile has been influenced by the legendary artists of the past from Bob Dylan, James Taylor and The Beatles, to contemporaries, Bonnie Raitt, Sara McLachlan, and The Indigo Girls.
There are hints on every song on the album where each diverse musical influence resonates. The opening track, "Follow," has a bit of the Hollies somewhere within the melody. And the British sounding comparisons do not stop there and may be heard with the Beatles-ish "What Can I Say" and "Gone" and the Radiohead-like "Throw it All Away" (although not on the album, check out Carlile's live version of "Creep"). But by far, the folk-country crossroads feel breathes heavily throughout the album, especially with the semi-autobiographical "Happy," "Closer to You," and "Someday Never Comes; two other tracks also spotlight and complement the rest of the songs, the up-tempo "Fall Apart Again, this listener's favorite, and "In My Own Eyes." And to conclude this edition of the record, two bonus tracks have been added, a live rendition of Elton John's "Sixty-Years On" with Carlile's standout raspy vocals and "Tragedy (Austin cello version)," an even more haunting version than the original with its chilling and dramatic overtones from Josh Neumann's cello.
Undoubtedly, Carlile's vocals as well as her fellow bandmates, twin brothers Tim and Phil Hanseroth's harmonious backing highlight the album. And it is impressive that majority of the songs on BRANDI CARLILE were produced by Carlile and the Twins with the exception of two tracks that were produced by John Goodmanson and John Fields. With every musical artist that comes along, there is a story behind each song and before Carlile's THE STORY there was simply BRANDI CARLILE that indeed tells a story where she has been. All of the songs on this record are well worth listening to more than once.
