Review

Sandra McCracken's songwriting on her second independent release is a natural movement toward the sounds and stories of Americana music. The record is driven by Sandra's stirring vocals and acoustic guitar sounds as it flows gracefully from song to song, framing the bittersweet lyrics of family and nostalgia. The album was produced with the same musicians throughout, and recorded as a band so as to capture the charms and imperfections of a live performance. It maintains the accessibility of honest folk music, while combining the textures of bluegrass and country rock. From Garret Buell's ambient percussion on the title track, to the wails of Bucky Baxter's pedal steel on "Steel & Magic," this record may be hard to categorize for the record shelves, but it's effortless for the ears.
