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:

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.

Brandi is one of my favorites! See also her first CD (self-titled), She has awesome passion for her music which comes through clearly in her performance. Check out KT Tunstall, Amy MacDonald, Duffy and Kathleen Edwards' (newest) for similar artists. (all are on vinyl)

Hickory, Is Brandi's album on Vinyl also? If yes, the recording quality any better than CD version?

BTW, If you like Brandi, you would also like Jesse Sykes.

The recording isn't bad at all. IMHO, it's definitely better than the average pop/rock recording out there. If you want bad, listen to some U2, Aerosmith, or some of the incredibly compressed and fatiguing recordings such as Sarah Brightman's latest CD Symphony. I don't want people potentially being turned away from Brandi Carlile for fear of a bad recording. Doing so would mean missing out on a great artist. Any recording shortcomings are minor in comparison to the quality of the music.
