Free Music Notes for Sweetwater
Free Music Review: Amazing Harmony
Hit: 4 Stars
I found Tres Chicas by chance. I was up late listening to Whiskeytown's version of "A Song for You" on the excellent Gram Parson's tribute CD "Return of the Grievous Angel", and I thought I would check out some Whiskeytown CD's. I learned that Whiskeytown tanked (I ordered 1 of their CD's anyway) and started looking to see what happened to the group members. I felt Caitlin Cary was the best part of Whiskeytown, and I was mildly stunned to find that she grew up in Seville, OH, only a few miles from where I was raised. We're talking SMALL towns! Back to the review: this is a fine CD, I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 because just 7/10 songs are keepers. For you MP3 downloaders, my list is: Sweetwater, Heartbeat, Foot of the Bed, Deep as Your Pocket, Am I Too Blue, When You Sleep, and When Was the Last. Tres Chicas is a fine group, the harmonies they spin on some of the songs are ethereal. They have a second CD out, and let's hope they keep recording together, as they are excellent musicians.
Sweetwater Poster
Each of these Tres Chicas were members of justly lauded bands in the 1980s and 1990s: Lynn Blakey with Oh OK, Let's Active, and most recently Glory Fountain; Caitlin Cary with Whiskeytown; and Tonya Lamm with Hazeldine. Formed after a chance encounter in Raleigh, North Carolina, the trio has a wealth of self-penned songs on which to showcase their gorgeous harmony vocals. This debut release outshines other such talent-packed ensembles, embracing everything from gospel harmonies to front-porch singalongs. Instead of coming off as a revolving centerstage, the three are so fully present on every song that each of their individual compositions bears the stamp of the whole group. Their guitars and violin are joined by occasional keyboards and a spare rhythm section (including producer Chris Stamey on bass). Covers of Loretta Lynn ("Deep As Your Pocket") and George Jones ("Take the Devil Out of Me") show a glimpse of their roots, but their original material stands near-equal to that of their forebears. --David GreenbergerCountry Music CDs
