Review

This debut album by Chicago duo Utah Carol has a lo-fi alternative-country and folk-tinged sound that is irresistible. A seductive, wistful mood permeates Wonderwheel and infuses the album with a hypnotic quality. With the exception of "Me and You," a beautiful ode to love with vibes and a heartening vocal performance by JinJa Davis, it's not so much the individual songs on this 20-track set that make it stand out as the sum of its parts. The intimate vocal harmonies of the duo, rounded out by Grant Birkenbeuel, have a languid quality that is at once lulling and engaging. A carnivalesque tapestry of sounds ranging from acoustic guitar, organ, cowbells, and slide guitar to vibes and even whistling adorn simple two- and three-chord song arrangements. The only criticism is that Wonderwheel is slightly long. Fewer tracks and this album would be perfect. --Michael Wells Utah Carol's 20-song debut. A moody circus of rock, country, jazz, blues and folk with vintage organ sounds and guitar hooks. Fresh, honest and raw sounding with vocal harmonies and strong melodies.
