Review

Expectations can be daunting for a pop musician, and never more so than when one is the progeny of a bona fide rock legend. Shana Morrison, daughter of Van, has stepped out of her father's shadow with her Bay Area indie band Caledonia, and the range of vocal ability showcased here indicates she's been listening as much as singing. But if anything, her chameleonic charms as a vocalist occasionally get the best of her as she segues effortlessly from Alanis-esque pop to the neo-R&B of Badu to a breathy touch of space-sister Macy Gray on "Day After Yes." But if she's to someday have newcomers compared to her, it may ironically be on the strength of the same bluesy, gospel-tinged style that's so often carried her father's music to transcendence, especially when she simply opens up and lets her voice seek its genetic roots on performances that range from the pop-smart single "Smoke in Bed" to the melancholy "St. Christopher" to a moody reinvention of her father's own "Naked in the Jungle." Pater Morrison lends his voice and distinctive harmonica coloring to a cover of his own "Sometimes We Cry" that's both the perfect gospel flip side to "God Must Love Me" and a contrast to the compelling Eastern sitar-pop of "Connection," the album's bonus track, cowritten with Narada Michael Walden. --Jerry McCulley
