Brandi Carlile

Just wondering if anyone has heard the new
Brandi Carlile album entitled The story. I am
playing it constantly and i can't believe this
album slipped under the radar for so many.She
is an excellent songwriter and has suprising
emotional depth for a 25 year old.Production
on the album could have been better (damn you T Bone
Burnett). Lol. However it's less noisy then Raising Sand.
It's also a much better album imho. Anyone who hasn't
heard it can check it out here:

Good artist, good show, with good covers. (Rockin 'Folsom Prison Blues' when I saw her.) I may like the first album better, esp. 'Happy.'

If you like Brandi, do check out Shannon McNally, "Geronimo," and Sera Cahoone, self-titled.

Thanks for that - I loved her first CD and will pick this one up shortly. In the same vein you may also enjoy Mindy Smith, Cat Powers and Feist.

Unfortunately i live in Calgary, Alberta(Canada).
The good shows always go to Toronto and Montreal.
I am planning on moving to the states soon, hopefully
somewhere in California.We just got a couple feet of snow
here the last couple days. Yeesh.
Thanks everyone for the other suggestions. I will look
into them.You can never have too much good music.

here I am late to the party again ;-\ I heard her song "The Story" on the GM commercial during the olympics and immediately hit google.

The whole album ("The Story") is a treat . . . I'm ordering her first cd now. Anyone who hasn't heard her should check it out.
