Sandy Bailey - Daughter of Abraham - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Singer and pianist Sandy Bailey has often been compared to a spectrum of acts, including Norah Jones, Laura Nyro, Patsy Cline, Susan Tedeschi and Patti Smith - yet she possesses a sound all her own. Her latest recording, Daughter of Abraham, showcases her signature sound which incorporates elements of gospel, blues, soul and Americana. It's an alluringly moody, genre-defying album, alternating in tone between the laid-back cool of Bonnie Raitt and the no-f's-given fire of Joni Mitchell, tempered with moments of genuine, heartbreaking vulnerability. Daughters of Abraham is the sound of a woman living her life. The depth of her songwriting stems from her life and identity as a biracial woman and single mother who abandoned a Pentecostal upbringing in favor of a life of art-making and rock and roll. Features performances by acclaimed musicians; guitarist Ryan Hommel (Amos Lee), bassist and engineer Marc Seedorf (Dinosaur Jr, Lou Barlow), and drummer McAulay (The Stones, Neil Young).
