I received the CD very quickly and had no problems with its delivery. The ordering process and price were excellent as well.Free Music Review: A Feel Good CD, that "just might make you believe"!
Hit: 5 Stars
I can't say enough good things about this CD. I can honestly say I love every song, and when I listen to it, I never skip a track.
From the toe tapping feel good songs such as "Baby Girl" and "Something More" to the beautiful ballads such as "Tennessee" and "Small Town Jericho", this album "just might make you believe"!
Now I'm looking forward to seeing Sugarland in concert, and to getting their next release!

Jennifer Nettles has a beautiful voice that comes across in the songs of the album, from the ballads "Baby Girl" and "Just Might (Make Me Believe)" to the more uptempo "Something More."
I usually don't listen much to country music but I can really recommend this album.

Free Music Review: Bright and shining newcomers
Hit: 5 Stars
This is the best band in country music today...besides Rascal Flatts!!!
I love the songs, they're upbeat and happy. Although the slow "Make me Believe" should be mine and my husband's theme song, as I'm sure many couples can relate to.
Love, love, love this band and am so glad that Jennifer did the song with Bon Jovi...my hometown rockers!!

Jennifer Nettles, Kristen Hall, and Kristian Bush are "Sugarland," and this debut album by the trio is a solid beginning to their career as such. However, all three of them have had careers long before this. Nettles fronted her own band. Hall gained respect for her writing skills and Bush was part of Billy Pilgrim. As of this writing, Hall has already departed from the trio. Who knows what that will lead to in the future.
As for this disc, Sugarland knows how to craft music that is rather appealing to a mass audience. They meld traditional country, folk rock and pop to make a sound that fits comfortably somewhere between Kenny Chesney's fluff and Allison Krause's commercial bluegrass. The first three singles from this album, "Baby Girl," "Something More," and "Just Might(Make Me Believe)" ring true of contemporary pop country, but songs like the title track and "Small Town Jericho" show that this group does have a little more weight to them than most johnny-come-lately's.
The only song that I have a problem with is "Down In Mississippi." It's an attempt at a barn-burner that wants to sound like Southern rock but fails to satisfy. Nettles' voice comes across as forced, and the song just feels out of place from the rest of the album. If this trio has any shortcomings, it's that their sound is too tight to sound tough.
Give this album a chance if you enjoy female vocalists or tight harmonies in the Diamond Rio vein. Also, if you're a fan of commercially cranked out country like Rascal Flatts, this album has plenty of that too.
